For the first time, Ghana will have one set of uniform, consistent definitions and descriptions affecting every aspect of healthcare for its citizens, thanks in part to support from a URC-led project.

Under the direction of the Ministry of Health, Ghana (MOH), the Health Facilities Regulatory Agency (HeFRA) and its partners will lead the support of Ghana’s commitment to universal health coverage by creating a uniform set of standards for healthcare services, types of facilities, and the licensing and accreditation of those facilities. These actions will reduce inequities in healthcare while enhancing the quality and consistency of care for Ghana’s citizens.

The USAID Quality Services for Health Activity, implemented by URC, provides technical support to the MOH and HeFRA to enhance quality government structures and coordination of services, promoting high-quality services in public and private healthcare sectors.
