NCD Hard Talks Webinar: No UHC without an Integrated Approach to NCDs: Presentation slides

Overview

Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) pose a heavy burden on global health and economic security, with severe impact on low and middle-income countries (LMICs). Achieving universal health coverage (UHC) requires urgent action towards prioritizing NCDs in the design and implementation of health policies and essential health service packages, ensuring sustainable financing mechanisms to pay for services and maximizing opportunities for service integration, so that “health for all” can become an equitable reality.
