Abstract: Abstract The issue of population aging is becoming increasingly severe, underscoring the importance of improving healthcare services for the elderly. Japan, being one of the most severely aging countries globally, boasts a well-developed system for elderly care. Using Japan as a case study, this research investigates Japan’s elderly care system, particularly its Combined Medical and Elderly Care (CMEC) model, and delves into the lessons it offers. By examining the current state of elderly care services in Meizhou City and drawing insights from Japan’s CMEC, this paper puts forth the following implications for the development of the elderly care industry in Meizhou City: expediting the establishment of a CMEC service system, optimizing the allocation of medical and healthcare resources, refining the design of the medical and elderly care system, bolstering financial backing, and nurturing a proficient medical care workforce.
