Sustainable health financing: Health-threatening products

Abstract

Health is one of every individual's fundamental values and needs that are greatly emphasized in divine religions and international documents. The impact of having a healthy society on achieving various goals such as economic growth and development, promoting the quality of life and longer life expectancy have compelled governments to utilize all resources to appropriately respond to the health needs of all demographic groups and provide high quality and affordable health care at all levels of public health, medical and rehabilitation services. This great and vital responsibility has been trusted to health systems. Subsequently, these systems have tried to properly do their commitment to ensuring communities' health, moving towards universal health coverage (UHC), and achieving the sustainable development goals (SDGs) by creating a coordinated, orderly, and purposeful system. Furthermore, they have taken shape various policies and plans for this matter that health financing mechanisms are one of them.
