Universal health coverage (UHC) ensures all people, everywhere, can get the quality health services they need without financial hardship. Every December 12th, advocates worldwide mobilize on UHC Day to call for strong, equitable health systems that leave no one behind: Health for All. UF HealthStreet can help you learn about healthcare resources available to you and your family.
