Healthcare reforms refer to significant changes and improvements made to healthcare systems, policies, and practices with the aim of enhancing the quality, accessibility, and efficiency of healthcare services. These reforms can involve alterations to the structure and financing of healthcare delivery, the introduction of new regulations, the expansion of coverage, or the implementation of innovative care models. The overarching goal of healthcare reforms is often to provide better health outcomes for the population, reduce costs, and address disparities in healthcare access and quality. Such reforms can be initiated by governments, private organizations, or a combination of both entities, and they may encompass various aspects of healthcare, including insurance coverage, public health initiatives, provider payment models, and patient care practices.
