Answer to Question 1

Health care's share of gross domestic product in the United States has increased from less than 6 percent in 1965 to nearly 18 percent in 2015, and is projected to continue rising in future years. Out-of-pocket spending on health care as a percentage of all spending on health care has steadily declined, falling from 48 percent in 1960 to 12 percent today.
