The Difference between Japanese the US and Healthcare System
The Japanese healthcare system is much more comprehensive for its citizens and universal in the system than that of the US. By this, it means it provides care for all citizen with relatively low cost and few appointment requirements. Moreover, the non-citizens can apply for national health insurance programs if they have lived for one year in Japan. Generally, the US healthcare system covers fewer services such as dental care, basic preventive services are readily available in Japan. While services for example magnetic imaging scans and blood tests are comparatively inexpensive and easy to get. In Japan, one has to pay $100 for an MRI neck scan comparing with $1,200 in the US. In the US, millions of people have no access to healthcare while in Japan citizens can walk into a doctor's clinic when they required. On the other hand, life expectancy in Japan is over four years greater than that of the US because it stresses preventive medicine.
