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.enAttribution-NonCommercial-ShareAlike 3.0 United Statesuniversal health coverageUHCType of access: Open AccessResearch Subject Categories::MEDICINEGlobal Burden of DiseasesGBDArticle
