Abstract
In 2013 US health care spending increased 3.6percent to $2.9trillion, or $9,255 per person. The share of gross domestic product devoted to health care spending has remained at 17.4percent since 2009. Health care spending decelerated 0.5 percentage point in 2013, compared to 2012, as a result of slower growth in private health insurance and Medicare spending. Slower growth in spending for hospital care, investments in medical structures and equipment, and spending for physician and clinical care also contributed to the low overall increase.
