Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on developing a Universal Health Coverage (UHC) index for Malawi as a baseline to track progress from 2020 to 2030, following its inclusion in the Sustainable Development Goals.
- The UHC index is derived from two main dimensions: service coverage (SC) and financial risk protection (FRP), using various health indicators based on Malawi's essential health package.
- The final UHC index for Malawi was found to be 69.68%, indicating relatively good performance compared to other low-income countries, though there are notable gaps and inequalities, particularly in service coverage.
