Universal Health Coverage is a core focus of the Sustainable Development Goals and achieving Universal Health Coverage means that all individuals and communities receive the health services they need without suffering financial hardship.
“Harnessing the power of digital technologies is essential for achieving universal health coverage,” said WHO Director-General Dr Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus when the World Health Organization released 10 new recommendations for countries to use digital health technology to improve people’s health and essential services.
