Additionally, in keeping in line with Health Vision 2030, the Government promise and Sustainable Development Goal 3 which is to ensure health and wellbeing of all citizens of Guyana, the intended impact is to achieve Universal Access and Universal Health Coverage using the conceptual basis of the new health system model of the National Strategic Plan for Health for Guyana (2021-2030).

Overarching Goal

Partnership with key stakeholders in health care to ensure that the delivery of services given to citizens is accessible, acceptable, timely and appropriate to meet the needs of all persons living in Guyana.
