Agree, a lot of countries in green don’t even have universal healthcare. we should replace it with a more accurate one. Sirui JIN (talk) 03:12, 3 February 2022 (UTC)

Why does the universal healthcare map repeat the same options multiple times?
The first map shown in this article repeats the options "Countries with universal health care" and "Countries without universal healthcare" with two different colors. CerealContainer (talk) 14:37, 22 October 2023 (UTC)


 * I don't understand that either. Perhaps the map should just be deleted?  Mr Serjeant Buzfuz (talk) 15:58, 22 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Because someone long ago made a crazy and incorrect map which nobody knows how to/wants to fix and update, and some other people have decided it shouldn't be deleted.

Universal Health Coverage vs Care
Why is this page titled "universal health care"? The WHO uses the term "Universal Health Coverage", which better describes the concept, since what is universal is coverage of health services, not the provision of health services. I hesitate to change it since I'm not a wikipedia editor, but I am a health systems person and would be happy to edit to be more technically accurate, if needed. 71.163.76.178 (talk) 13:52, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
