Most of the Swiss health interventions are supporting the primary health care level of the public health system. Community mental Health care, nursing, integrated care; multi-sectoral health promotion and prevention are other important aspects of the Swiss portfolio in the Balkans. The regional health advisor has in its function to organize and foster regional exchange and learning among the three programs. This year a study tour shall allow getting insight into a similar but advanced system through a study tour in Slovenia and exchange on the selected topics among the participants. Some basic reflections for a strategic paper on the future orientation of the Swiss health engagement could be another result of this exchange. 3 1 Objectives of the Study Tour The objective of the Study Tour is to learn from a country in the region that is a member state in the European Union- how it tackles the most pressing public health issues of its population.

(2016): 24 100 EUR PPP Life expectancy and health level 2016: 81.3 years (M: 78.2, F: 84.3). Health life years expectancy at birth: F: 57.9.2 and M: 58.7 years. 67% of Slovenians report to be in good health. Causes of mortality: Although mortality rates from both cancer and cardiovascular diseases have fallen since 2000, they remain above the EU average, and for men they are actually among the worst in Europe. External causes represent the third largest group of deaths for men and rank fifth for women, mainly because of the high numbers of falls, mostly in old age, in both groups and suicides. In 2014, Slovenia ranked fourth in terms of mortality from suicide in the EU, with particularly high levels among men and large regional disparities between western and eastern Slovenia. Risk factors: In 2014, 19% of adults in Slovenia smoked tobacco every day, which is slightly below the EU average and down from 24% in 2001. Obesity rates, however, are above the EU average and for adults have increased from 16% in 2007 to 19% in 2014. What is more, 20% of 15-yearolds were either overweight or obese in 2014, the fifth highest level in the EU, with boys particularly affected. This is despite reporting above average levels of physical activity. An important contributor seems to be the deteriorating diet of Slovenian adolescents in recent years. Slovenians appear to have some of the worst dietary behaviour in the EU with less than one in three eating fruit and vegetables regularly, more than one in three consuming sugar-sweetened beverages regularly and every second child skipping breakfast. Slovenians also have the second highest level of salt intake in the EU, an important contributor to the fact that a quarter of the population had high blood pressure in 2014. Repeated drunkenness among 15- year-olds is higher than in most EU countries, but binge drinking among adults is close to EU average. The alcohol consumption among adults is 11.5 litres in 2015. Total health expenditures (THE): In 2015, Slovenia spent EUR 2 039 per head on health care, compared to the EU average of EUR 2 797. This equals 8.5% of GDP, which is also below the EU average of 9.9%. However, its health system is one of the most expensive among the newer Member States. Only 71.1% of health spending is publicly funded compared to 78.7% at EU level. However, only 13% of private health expenditure
