Abstract
Achieving universal health coverage (UHC) involves all people receiving the health services they need, of
high quality, without experiencing financial hardship. Making progress towards UHC is a policy priority for both
countries and global institutions, as highlighted by the agenda of the UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and
WHO’s Thirteenth General Programme of Work (GPW13). Measuring effective coverage at the health-system level is
important for understanding whether health services are aligned with countries’ health profiles and are of sufficient
quality to produce health gains for populations of all ages.
