Definición Inglés:
|
|
Universal health coverage implies that all people have access, without discrimination, to nationally determined sets of the promotive, preventive, curative and rehabilitative basic health services needed and essential, safe, affordable, effective and quality medicines, while ensuring that the use of these services does not expose the users to financial hardship, with a special emphasis on the poor, vulnerable and marginalized segments of the population (From: Social Protection and universal health coverage. UN General Assembly, 67th Section, 2012. p.4. Available in: http://www.un.org/en/ga/search/view_doc.asp?symbol=A/RES/67/81). UHC is firmly based on the WHO constitution of 1948 declaring health a fundamental human right and on the Health for All agenda set by the Alma Ata declaration in 1978. UHC cuts across all of the health-related Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and brings hope of better health and protection for the world’s poorest. (From: What is Universal coverage? WHO, 2017. Available in: http://www.who.int/health_financing/universal_coverage_definition/en/) |
