Description

When is universal health coverage not actually universal? What are the main hurdles to universality? And how can we get health coverage to hard-to-reach population? To discuss this and more, Jessamy is joined by Prof. Joseph Wong, Vice President, International, of the University of Toronto and founder of the Reach Alliance, and three members of the Global Reach Alliance, Elizabeth Lubinda, a maternal health and HIV/AIDS researcher at the University of Cape Town, Francesca Lanzarotti, a Women's Health researcher at UCL, and Rushay Naik, a junior health policy analyst at the OECD.Find out more about how The Lancet is marking its 200th anniversary with a series of important spotlights here:https://www.thelancet.com/lancet-200?dgcid=buzzsprout_tlv_podcast_lancet200_uhcYou can listen to our other UHC podcasts and see all of our Spotlight content relating to Universal Health Coverage here:https://www.thelancet.com/lancet-200/universal-health-coverage?dgcid=buzzsprout_tlv_podcast_lancet200_uhc
