Barriers to medical technology access
Access to quality, affordable, and effective medical devices and equipment (MDE) is a prerequisite to achieving universal health coverage (UHC). More than 2 million MDEs are available for disease prevention, diagnosis, treatment and rehabilitation. However, barriers to MDE access are prevalent across low and middle-income countries (LMICs), impairing sustainable healthcare service delivery to patients.
Access to MDEs across LMICs is constrained by a series of complex, interrelated challenges affecting every lifecycle stage.
