2. Synopsis:
The Polish personal accident and health insurance segment recorded steady growth during
the review period. The segment’s gross written premium posted a review period (2009-2013)
compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.9%. The segment was driven by the economic
growth, an increase in demand for health insurance, and a rise in the country’s aging
population. Such factors are also expected to support the segment over the forecast period
(2013-2018); as gross written premium is expected to increase at a projected CAGR of
8.7%.
Poland has a general health insurance system under which subsidized health services are
provided to residents. It is principally state-financed through the National Health Fund (NFZ),
of which health insurance contributions formed a key part. Taxes from the state budget and
self-government budgets also contributed. Public sector spending accounts for a large
proportion of the total funding in Poland. Healthcare financing is low, however, as the
country’s healthcare expenditure amounted to 6.7 % of its GDP in 2012, and has not kept up
with the country’s GDP growth.
This has put a strain on health services, leading to an increase in public dissatisfaction. The
Ministry of Health has made a number of reforms to improve the country’s health insurance
system.
