The NHE, which is published annually, is the official U.S. estimate of insurance enrollment and health spending. CMS projects that from 2022 to 2031, the NHE’s annual growth rate of 5.4% will surpass the U.S. gross domestic product (GDP) annual growth rate of 4.6%. As a result, health spending as a share of the U.S. GDP is set to jump from 18.3% in 2021 to 19.6% in 2031.
