Although life expectancy has increased significantly since 1950, South Korea faces a number of important health-care issues including the impact of environmental pollution on an increasingly urbanized population a male smoking rate of 45% and the highest suicide rate in the OECD: 29.1 per 100,000 (14160 a year). ==Chronic disease== According to the Ministry of Health and Welfare, chronic illness account for the majority of diseases in South Korea, a condition exacerbated by the health care system’s focus on treatment rather than prevention. The incidence of chronic disease in South Korea hovers around 24 percent. The human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) rate of prevalence at the end of 2003 was less than 0.1 percent. In 2001 central government expenditures on health care accounted for about 6 percent of gross domestic product (GDP).〔(South Korea country profile ).

The proportion of the population over 65 is expected to rise from 13% in 2014 to 38% in 2050. Majority of health care professionals treat patients on curative, rather than preventive treatments, because of the lack of financial incentives for preventive treatments.〔"Song, Y. J. (2009).
