Universal Health Coverage (UHC) Day is observed annually on December 12.
It serves as a global rallying point to raise awareness about the importance of ensuring that everyone, everywhere, has access to affordable, quality healthcare without financial hardship.
The day marks the anniversary of the United Nations’ endorsement of universal health coverage in 2012 as a key global health priority. It highlights the need for stronger, more equitable health systems, particularly in low- and middle-income countries.
