About the Japanese healthcare system 

The healthcare system in Japan is thought to be one of the most effective in the world. The country boasts the longest life-expectancy; the third lowest infant-mortality rate and some of the best recovery rates from major diseases, like cancer. Ahead of the rest of the world in medical technology, its hospitals have twice the amount of MRI scanners than the USA and medical engineers are now working to develop robotic surgery. Despite this, Japan is suffering from a shortage of medical practitioners due to the cost of studying medicine and the relatively low pay they receive. Its ever-aging population is causing more and more geriatric diseases and with fewer doctors to treat this problem, Japan’s medical system is facing a major turning-point. To maintain the high-standard of living and health and to create a sustainable future, it is essential that Japan keeps abreast of developments in medical research, education, technology and pharmaceuticals from across the globe.
