Achieving universal health coverage is one of the targets of UN Sustainable Development Goal #3

Three technologies can have an outsized impact in achieving universal health coverage:

All ten countries in ASEAN have committed to the achievement of universal health coverage

Five ASEAN countries have surpassed the global median of 65% population coverage of universal health coverage with two – Singapore and Brunei – already considered to have achieved universal health coverage

Achieve universal health coverage, including financial risk protection, access to quality essential health-care services and access to safe, effective, quality and affordable essential medicines and vaccines for all.

UHC Service Coverage Index in ASEAN

Reaching 650 millionDigital technology is key to achieving universal health coverage in ASEAN Starting with primary care

Ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages

3 Good Health and Well-Being

Over half of the countries in ASEAN face a severe shortage of physicians and other health workers

The opportunity zone shows the countries where digital technologies can make the biggest and most immediate impact on access to skilled healthcare workers, including doctors, nurses, and midwives

The key for many countries is to move from identifying opportunities to implementing these technologies in ways that deliver impact, starting with primary care

This paper recommends a 10 point action plan to achieve universal health coverage through the implementation of digital technologies

Digital technologies will have the largest impact in healthcare if implemented at the primary care level

Spotlight: Thailand’s shift to primary care

Start with Primary Care

The 10 action points

However achieving and sustaining universal health coverage is difficult, forcing countries to prioritise between Access, Quality and Cost

Healthcare expenditures are rising across ASEAN, between 2006 and 2016 per capita spend increased by 2x

Thailand has reached 99% healthcare coverage nationally. Four decades after implementation, outpatient visits to rural health centers increased by 40%, and outpatient visits to urban hospitals declined by 60%, demonstrating a significant shift to primary care in rural areas.

40% increase inoutpatient visits torural health centers

60% outpatient visits to urban hospitals declined

The health outcomes were equally impressive:

Thailand’s under-5 mortality rate dropped from

to

In the same time period, its maternal mortality rate dropped from 42 deaths per 100,000 live births to 26 deaths per 100,000 live births.

In 8 out of 10 ASEAN countries, more than 1/3 of healthcare expenses are paid out of pocket by individuals

Average current health expenditure as 4.1% of GDP in ASEAN

Average out of pocket payments as 40.1% of current health expenditure in ASEAN

Digital technologies can eliminate the barriers in the iron triangle of healthcare, allowing countries to

simultaneously improve

In Canada, the Health Infoway initiative invested USD 2.15 billion into digital transformation (e.g. telehealth, drug information systems, eclinics)

Which led to an estimated USD 16 billion in benefits

On a national scale, countries have achieved remarkable benefits from comprehensive digital transformation of healthcare
