<p style="line-height:normal"><span style="font-size:12.0pt">Since the
Millennium Declaration was signed in 2000, resources remain insufficient in
most low-income countries to ensure that all people access to even a very basic
set of health services. When people use health services, around 150 million
each year suffer severe financial hardship because they have to pay out of
their own pockets at the time they receive care, and 100 million are pushed
into poverty as a result. The World Health Report 2010 says that all countries
could take actions in at least one of the following areas to move more closely
towards universal coverage - raise additional funds for health; reduce
financial barriers and increase financial risk protection through prepayment
and pooling; use the available funds more equitably and efficiently.</span></p>
