Despite this, the country has a reputation for the quality of its health services health services Managed care The benefits covered under a health contract and health indicators, and has an impressive pharmaceutical/biotechnology research sector. This reputation is deserved in part, but conceals an ageing healthcare system in dire need of restructuring and modernising, none of which can be achieved without greatly increased funding. During the Cold War, Cuba was a major Soviet ally, and the market remained largely closed to the West. During the 1990s, however, many countries in the West established links with Cuba. The USA, virtually alone, maintains its embargo embargo (ĕmbär`gō), prohibition by a country of the departure of ships or certain types of goods from its ports. Instances of confining all domestic ships to port are rare, and the Embargo Act of 1807 is the sole example of this in against Cuba. This is starting to hurt US healthcare firms, as companies based in Asia, Canada and Western Europe Western Europe The countries of western Europe, especially those that are allied with the United States and Canada in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (established 1949 and usually known as NATO). have the high-tech market to themselves.
