National Health Authorities

National Health Authorities are government agencies responsible for overseeing the healthcare system within a country. They develop policies, regulate medical services, ensure public health standards, and coordinate responses to health crises such as pandemics. These agencies work to improve overall health, manage healthcare resources, and ensure that citizens have access to quality medical care. Examples include the Department of Health in the U.S. or the National Health Service in the UK. Their goal is to protect public health by implementing effective, evidence-based strategies and regulations.
