Abstract
Towards a meaningful measure of universal health coverage for the next billion.
Highlights
Monitoring universal health coverage (UHC) has become increasingly important, especially given the centrality of UHC in the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) era and its ascent in policy dialogues
Without greater consensus on what set of health services should comprise an ideal measure of UHC, we lack a roadmap for achieving and monitoring these aims
Now is the time to unite and establish a cohesive, meaningful metric of UHC—a way to understand whether people throughout the world are truly receiving the services they need to live long, healthy lives
Summary
Monitoring universal health coverage (UHC) has become increasingly important, especially given the centrality of UHC in the Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) era and its ascent in policy dialogues. Without greater consensus on what set of health services should comprise an ideal measure of UHC, we lack a roadmap for achieving and monitoring these aims.
