[Translated article] Private Dermatology Practice Characteristics and Fees in Spain in 2023: A Survey and Comparison With Findings for 2018

Encuesta sobre las características y honorarios de la práctica dermatológica privada española en 2023. Actualización y cambios con respecto a 2018

This report analyzes findings from a January 2023 survey of 235 dermatologists in private practice in Spain. The data for 2023 are compared to findings from a similar survey of conditions in 2018, to provide a snapshot of each year and identify changes in clinical practice and adaptations to emerging situations and challenges. Noteworthy changes in 2023 vs. 2018 included increased dedication to private practice and teleconsultations, more use of prepayment for procedures, more acceptance of payment by credit card or other electronic means, and variation in the timing of price changes. Sixty percent of the respondents reported planning to raise prices in 2023. The planned pricing adjustments will approximate the rise in the consumer price index. We also found that male dermatologists more often reported fees at the highest end of the range.
