Advancing Universal Health Coverage: Policy and Practice in Asia

A new book from ADBI Press, Advancing Universal Health Coverage: Policy and Practice in Asia, explores the policies and reforms needed to make quality healthcare accessible for all.

Universal health coverage is a promise that everyone can obtain the health services they need without suffering financial hardship. Across Asia and the Pacific, considerable progress has been made, yet too many people still face barriers to timely, affordable and quality care.

Drawing on the latest research from India, Thailand, the People's Republic of China, Indonesia, and other Asian countries, the book examines maternal and child health, financial protection, primary healthcare, institutional quality, and digital health. It offers valuable insights for policymakers and development practitioners working to improve health outcomes across the region.
