Question:

What are the main strengths and challenges of Sweden’s healthcare system?

Author: Henriette Bergo



Answer:

Strengths: * Universal access ensures equity and solidarity. * Decentralized governance allows services to be tailored to local needs. * Strong cost control through tax-funded financing. * Patient guarantees (e.g., 0-7-90-90 rule) reduce waiting times and improve satisfaction. Challenges: * Regional differences in service quality and waiting times. * Rising costs of elder care and healthcare due to an aging population. * Growing demand for specialist care puts pressure on primary care coordination.
