Azerbaijan Fuad Ibrahimov Economic trends • Azerbaijan's real per capita GDP growth slowed consistently between 2008 and 2011; however, the economy did not contract. The government has maintained a balanced budget, although spending levels are among the lowest in Europe. Health expenditure as a share of government expenditure is low compared with other European countries (Azerbaijan: Fig. 1). • OOP payments are the main source of health financing; growth rates for all sources of health financing are volatile, largely because of low expenditure levels (Azerbaijan: Fig. 2). Policy responses Changes to public funding for the health system • No response reported. Changes to health coverage Population (entitlement) • No response reported. The benefits package • No response reported. User charges • No response reported. Changes to health service planning, purchasing and delivery Prices of medical goods • No response reported.
