The country\u2019s strong foundation in primary health care, established in the 1980s through community health workers, remains a key strength. Building on this legacy, Iran is advancing toward universal health coverage through several reform initiatives. These include expanding health insurance, reducing out-of-pocket payments, broadening the health benefit package, improving the purchasing efficiency of health services, and enhancing public participation in health decision-making.
