Universal Healthcare: Dream or Reality?

 

Author info »

Abstract

Universal healthcare (UHC) is often hailed as the gold standard for equitable health systems. It promises that every individual, regardless of income, geography, or social status, can access quality health services without financial hardship. But is this vision achievable across the globe—or merely aspirational? This article explores the global momentum behind UHC, the benefits it offers, and the policy challenges that continue to hinder its full realization.
