However, this perspective overlooks the potential for longer lives to drive economic growth. By implementing smart healthcare policies focused on prevention, efficiency, and keeping older individuals economically active, countries can transform aging demographics from a fiscal burden into an economic opportunity. Singapore and Japan offer examples of how to achieve this through various healthcare financing and delivery models. AI
