The bar chart and table illustrate information about healthcare resources and life expectancy in eight countries. Overall, it is clear that Japan provides the highest number of hospital beds and has the longest life expectancy compared to other countries. Moreover, the government spending on health is the lowest than that in the US and Netherlands.
In terms of facilities provided in hospitals, Japan has approximately 14 beds per thousand of the people, nearly twice as many as Germany (8 beds). Meanwhile, the other six countries such as Australia, Netherlands, Canada, Spain, the UK, and the US witnessed a similar number of facilities at around 3 to 5 beds per thousand of the population.
Parallel with medical beds, the average life expectancy of Japanese is 83 years, the longest than those of Dutch (80 years) and American (78 years). Surprisingly, although the US average longevity was the lowest, the government spends much more money on healthcare at about $6,719 per person, almost double that of the Netherlands and Japan, which was $3,481 and $2,581 per person respectively.
