14 Universal Health Care (UHC) and Access to Medicines Universal Health Care (UHC) is the call and commitment of the Philippine Government to ensure that every Filipino has access to quality and affordable health care. In 2011, the Department of Health announced its goal to achieve UHC under the flagship program of President Benigno Aquino III known as Kalusugan Pangkalahatan (KP) focusing on improving access to health care services and reducing poverty from catastrophic healthcare expenditures especially for the poor and most vulnerable population.

The administration puts it on top of the socioeconomic agenda to improve the health and quality of life. To attain UHC, the DOH defined three strategic thrusts to be pursued from , namely: 1) Achieve the health-related Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) of improving maternal and child health and combating priority infectious and noncommunicable diseases; 2) Provide financial risk protection through expansion in the enrollment and benefit delivery of the National Health Insurance Program (NHIP); and 3) Improve access to quality health care which includes the upgrading of public hospital and health facilities, ensuring adequate health human resources and securing the availability of essential medicines.
