Pregunta:
How do cultural values shape the structure and priorities of healthcare systems?
Autor: Henriette BergoRespuesta:
Communitarian Cultures (e.g., Germany, Japan): These cultures value collective well-being and social responsibility, leading to Social Health Insurance (SHI) systems where funding comes from shared contributions and everyone is ensured access to healthcare. Egalitarian Cultures (e.g., UK, Sweden): These cultures prioritize equality and universal access, favoring National Health Services (NHS) that are publicly funded to provide healthcare to all as a right. Individualistic Cultures (e.g., U.S.): With a focus on personal choice and responsibility, these cultures often rely on Voluntary Health Insurance (VHI), where individuals purchase insurance privately, reflecting a market-driven approach to healthcare.
