Harmonizing Healthcare Accreditation Standards with WHO's Universal Health Coverage Goals
Dr. Nishant Jaiswal
Abstract: This study explores the alignment between standards set by international and national healthcare accreditation bodies and the World Health Organization's (WHO) Universal Health Coverage (UHC) goals for 2030. Through a thorough analysis of accreditation standards and healthcare professional interactions, key areas of congruence and divergence with UHC objectives are identified. The findings underscore the pivotal role of accreditation in advancing global health goals and provide strategic recommendations to better synchronize accreditation practices with UHC targets.
