Introduction (Excerpt):

In the midst of COVID-19, there is urgency to address the inefficiencies and inequities in the region’s health systems. The region is grappling to address the economic and social impacts of the virus outbreak as it has become the new global hotspot. Governments must work together to mobilize resources to minimize the long-term effects and protect the most vulnerable. Within this context of this unprecedented global health emergency, collaboration between the public and private sectors is needed more than ever before.

AS/COA is launching its first Healthcare Series report with key recommendations for governments and health system stakeholders in the region to address the inefficiencies and inequalities in the region’s health sector. The report is a product of program conducted in the United States, Colombia, and Brazil with health ministers and leaders from the private sector, multilateral organizations, and others.
