Definition

  • Published yearly by the National Health Statistics Group of the Office of the Actuary at the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), the U.S. National Health Accounts (NHA) is the definitive source on the nation's past, current, and future healthcare expenditures. The NHA describes the total national amount spent on healthcare by type of services (e.g., hospital care, physician services, and prescription drugs), source of funds (e.g., private health insurance, Medicare, Medicaid, and out-of-pocket costs), and type of sponsors (e.g., businesses, households, and governments).
