| 词条 | Health Inequality in Thailand |
| 释义 |
There are large inequalities in healthcare in Thailand, with most healthcare providers located in or near Bangkok, and the rural areas lacking doctors, nurses, and hospitals. DeliveryHealthcare in Thailand is provided through government health services, private medical sectors, and non-profit health organizations. Universal health care was implemented in Thailand in 2002, providing free care to around 47 million people.[1].[1] Non-profit health care is available to help the poorest and most underserved people. Organizations currently active in the region include the Red Cross, World Vision, and Medecins Sans Frontieres.[2] These non-profit organizations aim to develop the quantity of life of marginalized and disadvantaged individuals. DistributionAround half of doctors in Thailand work in or near Bangkok.[3][4][5] The ratio of doctors to patients in Bangkok is 1:720, in the North it’s 1:2,300, and in the Northeast it’s 1:3,200.[6] As of 2004, 25.8% of nurses were located in Bangkok, and 20.6% of hospital beds were in Bangkok.
