2025 Universal Health Coverage Day campaign.

 


More than half the world’s population still lacks access to essential health services. And a quarter of them face financial hardship when paying for health care out of their own pockets, often at the expense of food, education or housing. The 2025 Universal Health Coverage Day campaign theme, “Unaffordable health costs? We’re sick of it!”, focuses on the lived experience behind these statistics, reminding government decision-makers that unaffordable health costs are making our communities poorer and sicker and holding us back on all of the Sustainable Development Goals.




Unaffordable health costs; we are sick of it



Delaying care because its too expensive?



Having to choose between health and other basic needs; We're sick of it!



Not being able to afford essential medicines; We're sick of it!

Campagne de la Journée de la Couverture Sanitaire Universelle 2025.

  Plus de la moitié de la population mondiale n'a toujours pas accès aux services de santé essentiels. Un quart d'entre eux rencontrent des difficultés financières pour payer leurs soins de santé de leur poche, souvent au détriment de l'alimentation, de l'éducation ou du logement. Le thème de la campagne de la Journée de la couverture sanitaire universelle 2025, « Des soins de santé inabordables?; Nous en avons assez! », met l'accent sur le vécu de ces personnes, rappelant aux décideurs politiques que le coût exorbitant des soins de santé appauvrit et fragilise nos communautés et nous empêche d'atteindre tous les Objectifs de développement durable. Retarder des soins parce qu'ils sont trop chers ? Devoir choisir entre la santé et d'autres besoins fondamentaux. Ne pas pouvoir se permettre des médicaments essentiels.

  全球超過一半的人口仍無法獲得基本醫療服務。其中四分之一的人在自費就醫時面臨經濟困難，往往必須犧牲食物、教育或住房等其他生活必需品。 2025年全民健康覆蓋日宣傳活動的主題是“高昂的醫療費用？我們受夠了！”，旨在揭示這些統計數據背後的真實經歷，提醒政府決策者，高昂的醫療費用正在使我們的社區更加貧困、疾病纏身，並阻礙我們實現所有可持續發展目標。 因費用過高而延誤就醫？ 不得不在健康和其他基本需求之間做出選擇？ 無力負擔基本藥物？

Inequalities are getting starker.

Despite progress, persistent gaps and inequalities are on the rise. In 2022, 3 out of 4 people among the poorest segment of the populations faced financial hardship from health costs, compared with fewer than 1 in 25 among the richest. Women, people living in poverty, or in rural areas, or with less education, reported greater difficulty accessing essential health services. The gap between women in the richest and poorest quintiles narrowed slightly, from about 38 to 33 percentage points over the past decade. Even in high-performing regions such as Europe, vulnerable groups – including the poorest and people with disabilities – continue to report higher unmet health needs. These findings likely underestimate the true extent of health inequalities, as the most vulnerable groups – such as displaced populations and people living in informal settlements – are often missing in data sources used to monitor progress toward UHC.
