Lancet Study: Access Without Quality of Care Improvements

LANCET STUDY: ACCESS WITHOUT QUALITY OF CARE IMPROVEMENTS

Mortality due to low-quality health systems in the universal health coverage era: a systematic analysis of amenable deaths in 137 countries.

Excerpt: “Our analysis shows that at all levels of development and across different scopes of insured services, poor quality of care will limit the mortality reduction possible from greater coverage. Countries pursing UHC must put better quality on par with expanded coverage if they are to substantially improve health.” Download the study here. PIIS0140673618316684 or directly from here.
