3. SHARED VISION FOR THE HEALTH SYSTEM
In the Emirate of Abu Dhabi, everyone has access to healthcare.
An open system for all certified providers of health services delivers World-class quality care and outcomes in compliance with the highest international standards.
A system encompassing the full spectrum of health - protecting, promoting, sustaining and restoring services across the territory of the Emirate.
Quality driven by ambitious improvement targets set by the regulatory authority of the Emirate and reflected in the regularly monitored and published key performance indicators of the system.
Providers are independent and predominantly private.
The health system finances itself through a mandatory health insurance for all AD residents.
The financial system should be flexible in order to manage for change over time and the degree of subsidy should be managed as efficiently as possible.
