The revenues of the four largest healthcare sectors rose by 7.2% in 2023 compared to the previous year. This increase was mainly due to higher tariffs for provided care. Care providers were able to compensate for wage increases resulting from newly concluded collective labor agreements and other cost increases due to inflation.
However, not all four major healthcare sectors saw an increase in their combined operating result in 2023. The operating result of mental health care almost doubled compared to the previous year, reaching 156 million euros.
