Japan offers lessons in preventive health for aging societies
Original: As the world's first super-aging society, Japan can show how prevention protects health, workers and prosperity. https:/
Commentary in The Japan Times argues that Japan, the world's first super-aging society, can serve as a model for how preventive health care protects people's health, keeps workers in the labor force longer, and sustains economic prosperity. The piece points to Japan's experience as demographic aging accelerates worldwide, suggesting other countries facing shrinking workforces could learn from its emphasis on prevention over treatment.
Why now: Countries worldwide are grappling with rapidly aging populations and rising health care costs, making Japan's preventive approach a timely reference point.
