How are doctors paid in japan?

Answer 1

As long as you are working, the government withdraw certain amount of money from your paycheck for your healthcare, like your tax. If you are not working or self-employed, you pay certain amount to government (or some organization?) every month, and your health & dental are covered. I am not living there anymore, so it may have changed over years.

Answer 2

The average doctor makes 64,000 to around 120,000 dollars a year. Japan typically makes less if you are a doctor than one in the United States. Specialties can make more.
