Thailand’s health care system needs many improvements. There are several areas that could be enhanced. There are problems with this system in the urban areas, but they are even worse in the rural areas. In the urban areas, they have problems with the types of doctors and the accessibility of the doctors. On the other hand, the rural areas have problems with the amount of time the doctors are there, and also the means of transportation to the clinics. Many villagers cannot get to the hospitals because they are too far away. The clinics in the rural areas are also very small, but service a large amount of villages, some even 14 km away from the hospital. The Thais have started to improve their health care system by making it more universal. The majority of the population is covered under the Universal Coverage Gold Card, but there are still problems with this system.
