The Health Succour

Universal Health Coverage

Most maternal deaths
are preventable

Universal Health Coverage (UHC) means that all people have access to the full range of quality health services they need, when and where they need them without financial hardship.

In Nigeria the Universal Health Coverage (UHC) has not been fully achieved as the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) failed because the law setting it up made it optional for people. Countries that have successfully achieved the Universal Health Coverage made it mandatory. Most countries implemented UHC through legislation, regulation and taxation.

Population

Mother and Child in the Internally Displaced Persons (IDP) population . These are people who have been forced to flee places of habitual residence as a result of armed conflict, violence, violation of human rights or human made disasters who have not crossed an internationally recognized state border.
