Average per capita health spending hit $4,567 (2,313 pound)per resident of Scotland, while it reached only $3,781 (1,915 pound) in England.
The data, released by the Office for National Statistics, indicates the continued rise in the gap of health spending between Scotland and England, which has reached 12 percent in 2006-2007.
The same report showed medical spending for Welsh was at $4,161 (2,109 pound), while it was $4,136 (2,096 pound) for Northern Ireland residents.
The growing gap between the health expenditures among the four nations comprising U.K. may spark again debates on how resources are distributed within Great Britain.
Meanwhile, a Leeds University study released Monday said the NHS has saved at least $172 billion (87 billion pound) on the free health care provided by relatives and friends of sick Britons who prefer to care for their sick, frail or old kin or friend themselves.
But of the 2,000 carers included in the survey, 77 percent said they set aside their own medical needs to attend to their sick relative.
