Saudi Healthcare Sector Posts $1.3 Billion in Profits for 2024 Amid Strong Growth
Rapid growth in Saudi healthcare profits raises concerns about strain on public‑health capacity.
Saudi Arabia’s listed healthcare companies reported combined net profits of SAR4.86 billion ($1.3 billion) in 2024, a 13.65% increase over 2023, driven by higher revenues and operational transformation. The private sector now delivers 24% of healthcare services, while government institutions account for 60%, and other public entities cover 16%. As part of Vision 2030, reforms are shifting healthcare financing toward an insurance‑based model, which may create access and equity pressures as market‑driven growth accelerates alongside ongoing public‑health‑system reforms.
