Neurologist Vikram Madireddy discusses his article "How Japan and the U.S. can collaborate for better health care," examining the parallels and contrasts between two of the world's most influential health systems. Vikram explains how Japan's universal Social Health Insurance model emphasizes preventive care, affordability, and trust, while the U.S. excels in medical innovation, precision medicine, and specialized care. He highlights opportunities for mutual learning—from Japan's aging-in-place strategies and holistic practice culture to America's team-based workforce models and digital health leadership. Listeners will gain insights into how transnational collaboration can reduce burnout, improve equity, and build resilient systems that honor both patient dignity and global health progress.
