The United States spends a larger share of its gross domestic product (GDP) on health care
than any other major industrialized country. Expenditures for health care represent nearly
one-seventh of the Nation’s GDP, and they continue to be one of the fastest growing
components of the Federal budget. In 1960, for example, health care expenditures accounted
for about 5 percent of the GDP; by 2000, that figure had grown to more than 13 percent.

Although the rate of growth in health care costs slowed somewhat in the mid-
1990s, it has once again started to rise at a rate that exceeds other sectors of the
economy. Thus, identifying ways to contain health care costs and obtain high
value for our health care investments continues to be a priority for the Nation,
particularly for policymakers and public and private payers.
