Abstract

The paper presents an analysis of effectiveness of health care in the selected OECD and EU countries with the innovation factor taken into account. The primary source of data presented in this article is publicly available data from databases of different countries or international organizations: WHO, EU, OECD, INSEE. The data presented in tables and figures show: the structures, dynamics and interdependence of variables. The paper presents the main civilisation problems of the world, directly or indirectly related to health care. Health care expenditures and their dynamics are analysed and compared to the dynamics of the GDP growth. The life expectancy has been used to analyse the effects. Life expectancy depends mainly on the expenditures on health care. Expenditures on R&D in health care explain life expectancy only to a small extent. Residents of countries catching up in terms of innovation live shorter than these of countries with a higher level of commitment to innovation.
