12th December is commemorated as Universal Health Coverage Day in both India and around the world. This special day holds significance as it marks the passing of Resolution 72/138 by the United Nations General Assembly on 12th December 2017, officially designating it as International Health Coverage Day (UHC). The primary objective of observing this day is to enhance awareness regarding the critical role played by robust and enduring health systems, as well as the imperative of universal health care, within a collaborative framework involving multiple stakeholders.
