Home healthcare was the largest segment with a revenue share of 30.88% in 2023. Horizon Databook has segmented the South Africa long-term care market based on home healthcare, hospice, nursing care, assisted living facilities covering the revenue growth of each sub-segment from 2018 to 2030.
In South Africa, with primary healthcare being insufficient, LTC is highly underdeveloped. Rise in life expectancy, along with developing healthcare facilities, has resulted in an elevated proportion of elderly people in the country. Approximately 8.5% of the total population, i.e., about 4.54 million people, is aged 60 years or over.
Migration for work has resulted in the reduction of extended family culture in the country. Poor economic conditions have led to situations wherein elderly, in most cases, are the only bread-earners of the family and are often held hostages for their pension money.
The government does not offer any form of long-term insurance, and only a few private insurance companies offer coverage at a high premium. Home care and hospices are nearly nonexistent in the country. There are reforms focused on providing care services to elderly. However, these reforms have not been implemented yet.
