Universal Health Day for Universal Health Care has been celebrated under the auspices of the World Health Organization since 2016. December 12 is the anniversary of the first unanimous UN resolution calling on all countries to provide their citizens with affordable, quality health care.
Private health insurance is the predominant source of health insurance coverage in the United States.
Universal health coverage means that all people have access to the health services they need, when and where they need them, without financial hardship. It includes the full range of essential health services, from health promotion to prevention, treatment, rehabilitation, and palliative care.
Currently, at least half of the people in the world do not receive the health services they need. About 100 million people are pushed into extreme poverty each year because of out-of-pocket spending on health. This must change.
