#cofog07 - Health

Government expenditure on health includes expenditure on services provided to individuals and services provided on a collective basis. Expenditure on individual services is allocated to groups (07.1) to (07.4); expenditure on collective services is allocated to groups (07.5) and (07.6).

Collective health services relate to such matters as the formulation and administration of government policy; the establishment and enforcement of standards for medical and paramedical personnel and for hospitals, clinics, surgeries, etc.; the regulation and licensing of health service providers; and applied research and experimental development in medical and health-related matters. However, overhead costs related to the administration or operation of a group of hospitals, clinics, surgeries, etc., are considered individual costs and are classified in groups (07.1) to (07.4), as appropriate.
