The document provides an overview of Qatar's economy and healthcare sector. Qatar has a very high GDP per capita due to its large oil and gas reserves. It has implemented strategic reforms to transform its healthcare industry since 2011-2013. The government's Qatar Healthcare Facilities Master Plan 2013-2033 guides the development of healthcare infrastructure. There is significant opportunity in Qatar's healthcare sector to address the country's growing population and demand for services, especially in areas like primary health clinics and diabetes treatment given the country's spending priorities and guarantees of investment in this sector.
