Physicians are angry, that that's bad news for hospitals.

The health and medical system in Japan.

This has been a brief sketch of the health and medical system in Japan. While many health indices have improved since the end of World War II, the health system still has many problems to be solved. The shortage of professional personnel remains a glaring one. And especially detrimental to the effective functioning of a good system is the fragmentation of various institutions, schemes and functions. It is necessary to integrate all of these things into a comprehensive health care system, and to establish a comprehensive plan for health and medical services.

[Analysis of different aspects of the health systems in Tunisia].

The health care system in Tunisia is composed of two sectors, public and private. Given the social and economic development level of the country, it can be said that the hospitals, health centers and workforce devoted to health are not severely limited. However, these structures are under-equipped and finance management is not relevant. The establishment of a National Health Service would render all the system more efficient.
