The SP4PHC project is launching a series of briefs to describe health system reforms taking place under the UHC Law, emphasizing the impact these reforms have on health financing and PHC. The series will also include narratives from our field experience in Antique and Guimaras to enrich learning and reflections from the frontlines. This introductory brief provides an overview of challenges confronting the Philippines health system and describes how the major provisions of the UHC Law are intended to respond to these challenges.
