Academic Significance and Societal Importance of the Research Achievements

ユニバーサル・ヘルス・カバレッジは、持続可能な開発目標における保健分野の目標を達成を目指す重要な指標の一つである。途上国においては、医療施設への地理的要因のみならず、経済的要因、社会的要因も医療へのアクセスに影響を与える要因とされ、包括的な視点よりユニバーサル・ヘルス・カバレッジの評価を行うことが求められる。地理的特性を考慮したユニバーサル・ヘルス・カバレッジの評価手法の開発は、現状の分析と改善に向けた取り組みの優先順位を定める際の根拠を提示し、効果的な政策立案に寄与すると考えられる。
