Answer: World Health Organization and World Bank Group
Notes: UHC Global Monitoring Report 2025 was jointly released by the World Health Organization (WHO) and World Bank Group. The report analyses global progress towards Universal Health Coverage (UHC), tracking access to essential health services and financial protection. It highlights improvements in health service coverage and reductions in financial hardship due to out-of-pocket (OOP) health expenses since 2000. The report identifies persistent inequalities, with the poorest and most vulnerable populations facing the greatest barriers to UHC. It provides recommendations for governments, including expanding public health investments, reducing OOP costs, strengthening primary care, and promoting equitable access to essential services.
