Funding for healthcare in Slovakia is principally through the health insurance system. The Slovak healthcare system is still very much in the public sector, although the majority of pharmacies and health spas are now privately-owned. Slovakia spends a relatively high proportion of GDP on healthcare, estimated at around 8.8%.

In 2012, the Slovak market for medical equipment and supplies is estimated at US$541 million, or US$100 per capita. The market contracted in 2009, but growth resumed in 2010. It is expected that the device market will continue to expand at a rate of 11.4% per annum, to be valued at US$928 million, or US$174 per capita, by 2017.

Around 85% of the medical device market is supplied by imports. These are largely supplied from Germany and other western European countries. The country has a well-established export industry focusing on areas such as dentistry.
