Motivation & Insight into Medicine 8
What are the two most pertinent issues facing our healthcare system today?
Average Candidate Response
I think the two most important issues are an aging population and the increasing cost of healthcare.
Excellent Candidate Response
Firstly, Singapore faces an aging population, which means that there are fewer taxes coming into the system but more patients which need to use the medical services. Secondly, increasing expectations of patients who are educated and well informed (as a result of the internet) and require longer consultation times in order to give reassurance to them and prevent the spread of false information
