Background: Our previous research in profiling successful inclusive healthcare initiatives that have emerged over the past decade across a range of low- and- middle income countries has brought forward insights about the business models, best practices and innovative approaches that have been applied. This work has focused primarily on the entrepreneur-led efforts and results even as the policy environment has inevitably been a contributor or barrier to business success.

This is a non-commercial event hosted by the IQVIA Institute for Human Data Science that will focus on the policy considerations that are most important as health systems and entrepreneurs seek to advance the provision of healthcare services and achieve universal health coverage.

Participation is open to the public at no cost.

Format: The virtual symposium will begin with a recap of the Scaling Up Inclusive Healthcare in LMICs research by the IQVIA Institute and Hystra and framing of issues for discussion of highlights, followed by a moderated discussion among panelists and time for Q&A submitted by the audience.
