from aslına baKARSak Hosted by aslına baKARSak
Every year on 12 December, the world celebrates International Universal Health Coverage Day (UHC Day). The official UN-designated day aims to raise awareness of the need for strong, equitable, and resilient health systems and universal health coverage. In this episode of aslınabaKARSak, we talked about Universal Health Coverage. Universal Health Coverage means that all people and communities can use the promotive preventive, curative, rehabilitative, and palliative health services they need of sufficient quality to be effective while also ensuring that the use of these services does not expose the user to financial hardship. Achieving universal health coverage is one of the most essential components of sustainable development goals. Pleasant listening!
