In profile: cohesion policy improving health services in the regions
The latest in our Cohesion Data Stories series analyses how ERDF investments in health services are helping fight COVID-19.
The EU's cohesion policy invests in health, a key asset for regional development and competitiveness, in order to reduce economic and social disparities.
The health sector and public health policy is a very important issue across the European Union. Health spending accounts for almost 10% of the GDP in Europe with those people employed in health related fields accounting for 15% of the European workforce.
Cohesion policy investments in health are closely linked with the EU's health policy framework, including needs assessment and cost-effectiveness. Investments may address a number of different areas such as Europe’s ageing population, healthcare infrastructure and sustainable systems, e-health, health coverage and health promotion programmes.
