Descriptions

The COVID-19 pandemic and its unprecedented consequences have challenged universal healthcare coverage progress, especially in lower-middle and low-income countries in ASEAN. Therefore, a stronger policy and sustainable financing strategy on healthcare become prominent to guarantee that the entire population accesses high-quality health services without facing financial hardship.

CSIS along with several healthcare stakeholders will discuss this matter in "The Path Towards Sustainable Healthcare Finance and Universal Healthcare Coverage in the ASEAN Region"
