Building a better working world
"Japan has built and administered a world-class medical system with universal health insurance, free access and other progressive features. However, various problems have arisen in recent years, primarily related to population, which are expected to come to a head in 2025. Medical costs are rising due to an aging population and the low birthrate; there are shortages of doctors, nursing care staff and other medical personnel; and hospitals and nursing care facilities are unevenly distributed.
It’s a transition period for the system, which means it’s time to improve operational effectiveness by utilizing medical data (in the form of data health plans) and to promote international development of Japan-style medicine (‘outbound medicine’) under the Japan government’s Revitalization Strategy.
Now, and in the future, I will continue to value human relationships and work to make even a small contribution to a better working world so that future generaltions continue to receive good medical care with complete peace of mind."
