Answer to Question 1

D
The number of physicians per person in the U.S. is less than any other wealthy countries such as France, Canada, or Japan. This shortage is more pronounced in family practice physicians and geriatric physicians.

Answer to Question 2

D
Japan is noted to have the longest life expectancy in the world at 82.4 years (Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development, 2008). It also provides comprehensive health care to all and is one of the most advanced health care systems in the world. Japan spends 8.2 of its gross domestic product (GDP) on health care.
