Out-of-pocket spending for personal health care
expenditures grew less rapidly than Medicare,
federal and state Medicaid, and private insurance
spending between 2003 and 2013.
Between 2003 and 2013, total personal health
care expenditures grew from $1.5 trillion to
$2.5 trillion (Table 104). During this period,
the average annual growth in Medicare
expenditures was 7.2%; for Medicaid (federal)
it was 4.7%, for Medicaid (state) 5.7%, for
private health insurance 4.8%, and for
out-of-pocket spending 3.6%. In 2013, private
health insurance spending for personal health
care expenditures was $846.0 billion;
Medicare spending $550.5 billion, out-ofpocket
spending $339.4 billion, Medicaid
(federal) spending $236.7 billion, and
Medicaid (state) spending $174.1 billion.
The remainder was paid by other types
of insurance, payers, and programs
(Table 104) (32).
