Analyst Opinion

The healthcare industry in Estonia has been experiencing significant growth in recent years, with the hospitals market being a key contributor to this growth.

Customer preferences: Customers in Estonia have shown a growing preference for private hospitals over public hospitals due to the perceived higher quality of care and shorter wait times. This trend is particularly evident in urban areas where private hospitals are more prevalent. Additionally, there is an increasing demand for specialized medical services such as oncology, cardiology, and neurology.

Trends in the market: The hospitals market in Estonia is expected to continue growing due to several factors. Firstly, the aging population in Estonia is driving demand for healthcare services, including hospital care. Secondly, the government has been investing in the healthcare sector, which has led to the development of new hospitals and upgrades to existing ones. Thirdly, medical tourism is becoming increasingly popular in Estonia, with many patients from neighboring countries seeking medical treatment in Estonia due to the lower cost of medical services compared to their home countries.

Local special circumstances: Estonia has a unique healthcare system where both private and public hospitals coexist. Public hospitals are funded by the government and are free for Estonian citizens, while private hospitals are funded by private individuals or companies and are generally more expensive. Due to the small size of the country, there is a limited number of hospitals, which has led to the development of specialized hospitals that cater to specific medical needs.

Underlying macroeconomic factors: Estonia has a stable economy with a high level of digitalization, which has led to the development of e-health services. This has made it easier for patients to access medical services, including hospital care. Additionally, the government has been investing in the healthcare sector, which has led to the development of new hospitals and upgrades to existing ones. The aging population in Estonia is also driving demand for healthcare services, including hospital care.
