Universal Health Coverage (UHC) means that all people have access to the health services they need, when and where they need them, without financial hardship. UHC is a global priority for the WHO, and the linchpin of the health-related Sustainable Development Goals. To achieve UHC at a country-level, health systems around the world are adopting an integrated and people-centred approach to health services. This means putting the comprehensive needs of people and communities, not only diseases, at the centre of health systems, and empowering people to have a more active role in their own health.
