Health Care Abroad: Taiwan
An interview of William Hsiao, Ph.D., Professor of Economics at the Harvard School of Public Health
Q. What’s the most important lesson that Americans can learn from the Taiwanese example?
A. You can have universal coverage and good quality health care while still managing to control costs. But you have to have a single-payer system to do it.
