The UK Private Healthcare market report identifies consumers’ attitudes towards using private healthcare and analyses the impact of the cost of living crisis on the private healthcare industry. This report covers the private healthcare market, with information on market size and market forecast, and industry trends for the Private Healthcare market in the UK.
The well documented continued difficulties with waiting lists within the NHS are creating strong conditions for the private healthcare market with the restrictions on growth primarily arising from capacity and the cost of living issues. Nonetheless, the uncertainties surrounding the timing of treatments, combined with the length of those waiting times are encouraging both increased private medical insurance take-up and growth in the self-pay market.
Mintel found that 55% of consumers have never used a private healthcare service, and while this number has decreased since 2022, there is still a large potential consumer base for private healthcare providers. However, considering that over a third of private healthcare users in the UK paid for the treatment themselves, affordability is still a major barrier for many consumers.
This report, written by Terry Leggett, a leading B2B analyst, delivers in-depth commentary and analysis to highlight current trends in the UK private healthcare market and add expert context to the numbers.
The private healthcare market is growing strongly on the back of the continued issues with waiting lists impacting the NHS. Moreover, arrangements with the NHS, a buoyant private medical insurance sector and growth in self-pay procedures are further growing the demand factors despite the cost of living crisis and the strong inflation within healthcare. Under such circumstances the sector is attracting buoyant activity from the private equity markets.Terry Leggett
