Monitoring UHC requires measuring health service coverage and financial protection (SDG target 3.8). Universal health coverage (UHC): At the centre of the health goal HEALTH SERVICES COVERAGE The summary measure of essential health services coverage, service coverage index of sub-indicators in four main areas: (1) reproductive, maternal, newborn and child health; (2) infectious diseases; (3) noncommunicable diseases; (4) service capacity, access and health security. FINANCIAL PROTECTION Financial protection is measured through two indicators: (1) impoverishment, and (2) catastrophic health expenditure. Impoverishment: 0.6% or approximately 4 578 people are being pushed into poverty (at US$ 1.90 level) because of out-of-pocket health spending.¹⁷ Catastrophic expenditure on health*: 1.8% of people spent more than 10% of their household's total expenditure on health care.¹⁷Family planning coverage⁶ Child immunization coverage⁷ (DTP3) Care seeking behaviour suspected pneumonia⁶ Pregnancy care (%) 0 50 100 Co ve rag e ( %) 9785 74 86 Reproductive, maternal, newborn and child health Latest available data (2010-2019) Tuberculosis (efective) treatment coverage⁸ HIV antiretroviral therapy coverage⁹ Access to at least basic sanitation¹² (%) Insecticide-treated bednets coverage 0 50 100 Co ve rag e ( %) 74 37 69 Infectious diseases Prevalence of normal blood pressure¹² Prevalence of normal fasting blood sugar level Tobacco non-use¹³ . 0 50 100 Co ve rag e ( %) 93 44 64 Noncommunicable diseases Density of hospital beds¹², expressed as % of global threshold, 18/10 000 Heath worker density¹⁴, expressed as % of global threshold, 44.5/10 000 Health security: IHR compliance¹⁶ - 0 50 100 Co ve rag e ( %) 97 21 73 Service capacity, access and health security UHC services coverage index of essential health services To provide a summary measure of coverage, an index of national service coverage is computed by taking the geometric mean of service coverage values across the sub-indicators.
