Chaim Sheba (1908-1971) and the Israeli health system.
Chaim Sheba was one of Israel's most influential medical figures. An internist by training, Sheba was among the founding fathers of the Israeli military medical system and took part in shaping its unique local model. Between 1950 and 1952, he was the Health Ministry's Director General, and soon after was appointed Head of Tel-Hashomer Hospital. In addition, Sheba played an important part in establishing Barzilai Hospital, in Israel's southern region, and was also one of the chief founders of Tel-Aviv University's School of Medicine. Alongside his work as a doctor and hospital manager and his many public obligations and activities, Sheba conducted research on the genetics of different Jewish ethnic communities who emigrated to the nascent State of Israel. In this article, we focus on Sheba's biography and explore how his vision and relentless activity shaped Israel's health system. While Sheba's achievements are our focal point, we also discuss his professional disappointments and unfulfilled visions.
