Members’ Day Introduction: Building patient involvement in universal health coverage globally Saturday 29 March, 11:30 am Windsor & Eton Suite @IAPOtweets #GPC2014 www.facebook.com/internationalallianceofpatientsorganizations

Chair • Kin-ping Tsang , IAPO Chair Speakers • Jo Groves , IAPO • Rachel Seal-Jones , IAPO #GPC2014

Why did IAPO choose access to healthcare as the theme of the 6 th Global Patients Congress? Access is the number one key issue identified by our • members. Universal health coverage is a priority area for the World • Health Organization (WHO) and Member States. However, there is a lack of understanding of what UHC is • and how we get there. The patient perceptive is key – as the recipient of • healthcare services so should have a say in how universal health coverage (UHC) is defined. #GPC2014

What is universal coverage? “Universal health coverage is the single most powerful concept that public health has to offer.” - Margaret Chan, Director General, WHO Universal coverage ensures that all people can use health services without financial hardship. #GPC2014

Universal health coverage Objectives of universal health coverage: • Equity in access to health services • High quality of health services • Financial-risk protection. This requires: • A strong, efficient, well-run health system. • A system for financing health services. • Access to essential medicines and technologies. • A sufficient capacity of well-trained, motivated health workers. #GPC2014

UHC Information Paper ‘IAPO Information Paper: • Universal health coverage ’, provides an introduction to universal health coverage ‘Country examples towards universal health coverage’, • examples from six countries; Mexico, Rwanda, Japan, Ghana, Thailand, and Chile, expanding healthcare coverage #GPC2014

Conclusion and next steps It is imperative that patients are involved in the • development and implementation of UHC strategies. Members will work to develop patient-centred principles • on UHC. The principles will be finalised after the Congress. • IAPO will use these principles to develop a policy position • on UHC. IAPO will share this position at the World Health • Assembly in May 2014. #GPC2014

Message from Joshua Wamboga Magawa, of The AIDS Support Organisation (TASO) Uganda- on election to the IAPO Board “Glory is to the Almighty God. I am humbled! Thank you the great IAPO team for working diligently to organize a successful 2014 congress. I am happy to join, learn, share experiences and in unison advance and champion the patients agenda. IAPO has done and achieved a lot, and yet still, much more needs to be done to see a patient at the centre of health care across the globe. For now I am happy to know and I pledge my total commitment to the cause of IAPO as I have done before. To the entire congress, say thank you! The trust and confidence put in me is much appreciated and I believe it shall bear fruits Best Regards, Joshua” #GPC2014
