This year\u2019s UHC Day is the moment to ask our partners to state and commit to their engagements so we can reach the goal of access to quality healthcare for everyone.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n<p>PharmAccess utilizes innovative strategies such as mobile technology, sustainable finance models and financial protection for vulnerable and low-income groups.<\/p>\n<p>Mobile and digital technology is already fast-tracking improvements in virtually all sectors in Africa; however, the health sector is yet to embrace the full potential of digital technology.<\/p>\n<p>In the context of 20-year PharmAccess, country offices are hosting a series of events addressing the biggest issues inhibiting inclusive healthcare in Tanzania, Ghana, Nigeria, and Kenya.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/tanzania\">Tanzania<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Tanzania.
