Egypt's Healthcare Market 
Potential
The healthcare sector in Egypt has 
grown significantly to meet the 
needs of the population. However, 
with a growing population and an 
increasingly aging population, 
financing mechanisms need to be 
adapted to best support this 
transition. Although Egypt has a 
largely state-financed system, there 
is also a large private financing 
component and care delivery is 
increasingly becoming 
decentralized. www.desertcart.com.eg
Egypt's Healthcare Market 
Potential
The study explores the current 
financing mechanisms and how 
they evolve over time, looking 
at both public and private costs 
such as out-of-pocket 
payments and insurance. The 
medical devices market in 
Egypt has also been growing 
steadily over the past years.

Demographic Changes Leading to Healthcare 
Transformation
In the last 40 years, Egypt’s total 
population has more than doubled. 
With an exploding population, a 
continued increase in life 
expectancy, and declining child 
mortality, these major changes 
have galvanized political 
leadership around Egypt’s goal of 
achieving universal healthcare 
coverage by 2025.

Demographic Changes Leading to Healthcare 
Transformation
Healthcare transformation is not a 
new phenomenon, yet the 
opportunities it presents are 
profoundly changing. For example, 
in Egypt, demographic change is 
increasing the demand for 
healthcare services and spurring 
new models of care delivery.

Demographic Changes Leading to Healthcare 
Transformation
The government of Egypt has 
identified a number of priorities to 
address these challenges including 
improving access to quality 
medical services; reducing costs 
and promoting sustainability; 
improving health outcomes 
through prevention; improving 
workforce development; and 
building resilient healthcare 
systems.

Universal Healthcare 
Coverage by 2030
The Egyptian healthcare market is 
undergoing massive changes. The 
rapidly growing population will boost 
the demand for healthcare systems. 
The healthcare system suffers from 
low bed density per 1,000 population, 
supply chain gaps, quality issues, and 
a lack of coordination between the 
different stakeholders. As such, there 
is a critical need for investment in 
healthcare facilities and reforms in 
structure and leadership.

Investment Opportunities 
in Healthcare
The need for healthcare 
investment in Egypt cuts 
across the range — from 
medical staffing and 
facilities infrastructure to the 
provision of medical devices 
and pharmaceutical supplies
. The situation is highly 
interdependent.

Egypt’s pharmaceutical market 
demand has witnessed rapid 
growth over the past years and 
Covid 19 pandemic has played a 
major role in the rise of demand. 
Meanwhile, the uptick in hospital 
buildings across Egypt will require 
an increase in the number of 
trained medical practitioners 
available to work in them.

Investment Opportunities 
in Healthcare
Egypt, like many countries, 
has a healthcare investment 
challenge. In recent years, 
Egypt’s population has surged 
as a result of a combination 
of factors – including a baby 
boom and increased 
migration from other African 
countries.

Add to this the influence of Saudi 
Arabia’s continuing aid 
commitments to Egypt and you 
have a recipe for rapidly 
increasing demand for medical 
services across the country. Since 
the technology used in Egypt’s 
healthcare is advancing it 
requires more investment to 
provide better healthcare facilities 
to the public.
