Universal Health Coverage (UHC)

Universal Health Coverage (UHC) means that everyone has access to necessary healthcare services without financial hardship. This includes preventive care, treatment for illnesses, and rehabilitation services. The goal of UHC is to ensure that all individuals, regardless of their income or background, can receive quality medical care when they need it. It aims to eliminate disparities in health access and outcomes, promoting overall public health and well-being. UHC can be achieved through various systems, like government-funded healthcare or insurance programs, ensuring that health services are affordable and available to every person in a society.
