Several researches showed that the death rate from diseases in underdeveloped
countries
is alarming, the situation was driven by a lack of access
to sufficient medication. I believe this
dire situation needs to be addressed with the help of the countries
' governments alongside the private sectors, most importantly drug producing
companies.

access
health
providers with little to no expenses. Such
a mechanism can be called Universal Health
Coverage. In relation to this
mechanism, several countries
have proved to have successfully implemented one, for example
, Indonesia, the United Kingdom, and Malaysia.
Secondly
, private sectors especially those producing drugs for medication should not turn a blind eye to this
health
issue. Pharmaceutical companies can offer an agreement to hospitals to sell their products at lower prices specifically for people in need. Another step can also
be done through company social responsibility for which donations of drugs can be made to hospitals and/or governments in charge of health
access
which then
will be distributed to clinics across the country.
In conclusion, while
pharmaceutical companies can be encouraged to cut the prices of drugs they produce, a proper scheme that can be a sustainable solution namely universal health
coverage should be considered to be implemented in underdeveloped countries
. Universal health
coverage will allow people to access
health
providers and receive medication with little to no spending.Submitted by ayeshanuraini29 on
