Universal Health Coverage Day: Health for All, Everywhere On Universal Health Coverage (UHC) Day, we celebrate the vital principle that everyone, everywhere, should have access to quality health services without the risk of financial hardship. UHC is not just an aspiration—it’s a fundamental right for all people, regardless of where they live or their socio-economic status. Despite significant progress, millions still face barriers to healthcare, whether due to high costs, distance, or lack of resources. Achieving UHC means breaking down these barriers and ensuring that health services are accessible to everyone. This day is a call to action: - For governments to prioritize health systems that leave no one behind. - For communities to demand quality care that is equitable and affordable. - For individuals to continue advocating for the health and well-being of all people, everywhere. Let’s stand together in the fight for universal health coverage and a future where health is truly for all. #UHCDay #HealthForAll #UniversalHealthCoverage #LeaveNoOneBehind #HealthEquity

Today is #UHCDay! Team #101HealthResearch joins the call on governments to: • Make universal health coverage and financial protection for health a national priority! • Adopt and implement laws to shield people from impoverishing health costs. • Allocate budgets for an affordable package of essential health services. • Establish national public health schemes that cover health costs for the entire population and are financed by national taxes. • Minimize or eliminate user charges for those most in need, including individuals with low incomes or chronic conditions. The UHC Day 2024 Theme is "Health: it's on the government!" Healthy people = Healthy communities = Strong economies. 🌎 Let's make #HealthForAll a reality by ensuring affordable healthcare for everyone, especially the most vulnerable.

Championing Universal Health Coverage: Health for All Access to quality healthcare is a fundamental human right, not a privilege. Universal Health Coverage (UHC) ensures that everyone, everywhere, receives the care they need without financial hardship. It promotes equity, strengthens communities, and drives sustainable development. Investing in UHC means building resilient health systems that prioritize prevention, early detection, and timely treatment. It also means addressing health disparities and ensuring marginalized groups are not left behind. We all have a role to play from policymakers and healthcare providers to businesses and communities. Let's advocate for stronger health systems that protect everyone, especially in times of crisis. Together, we can achieve "Health for All." #UniversalHealthCoverage #HealthForAll #Equity #SustainableDevelopment
