Universal Health Care and the WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION
April 20th, 2008 -- Posted in Health Insurance, Health Reviews, Health care | No Comments »Governments across nations are still fighting the cause of life-threatening diseases such as AIDS, malaria, dengue, SARS and polio. As such the idea of universal health care has found prominence today. As part of the universal health care system, countries are providing adequate medical treatments and affordable health insurance policies are being provided to its citizens. These affordable health insurance plans are paving a way to health for many. However, a number of third-world countries are still grappling with providing the basic health care facilities. In such a scenario the WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION which was established in 1948 with the objective of “the attainment by all peoples of the highest possible level of health” has stepped up its efforts to contain the outbreak of diseases, provide basic medical and health amenities and distribution of safe drugs and vaccines. The WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION coordinates its efforts with governments across the globe. As part of its mission to alleviate the general health of people, the WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION has published a list of essential medicines that all countries’ health care systems need to make available. Funded by some privileged institutions, the WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION through its consistent efforts has already succeeded in eradicating small-pox and is in the process of developing vaccines against malaria and polio. Its volunteers organize regular camps for free-medical check-ups for the poor in some third world countries. Together with the help of WORLD HEALTH ORGANIZATION, governments across the world can gradually achieve the dream of a healthy world.
In maintaining good health for yourself and you family, you have a larger responsibility in applying for health insurance. The health insurance plans go a long way to be made more affordable to you. Health insurance is thus a wonderful way to feel secure and tension free about sound health and happy living!
