Abstract

Progress toward Universal Health Coverage (UHC) constitutes one of the foremost global health priorities, with all United Nations Member States having committed to its realisation by 2030.1 Achieving this objective necessitates rigorous attention to existing infrastructures and the implementation of strategies that effectively utilise current capacities to ensure the delivery of services with maximal accessibility and minimal financial hardship. Primary Health Care (PHC), represents a critical platform in many countries, offering a comprehensive framework for the provision of care grounded in an equitable, and cost-effective model.
