| dc.description.abstract | Access to quality healthcare is a fundamental need of a country’s citizens and lays the foundation for sustainable and equitable economic development. Over a last few decades, India has made significant progress on the primary healthcare front. A large section of the population still lacks access to these services. The study mainly focuses to attain general information on usage, preferences, and constraints faced by the rural people in accessing the healthcare services and to assess the knowledge level of the respondents with their perception & awareness towards Universal Health Coverage. A descriptive research design was chosen in order to achieve the formulated objectives of the study. The study was conducted in 5 villages ( Anandpur, ,Indarpur, Chukti, Narayanpur, Gukulnagar) of Kichha, Udham Singh Nagar District of Uttarakhand State. The pre coded interview schedule and self-structured knowledge tool, self structured perception scale and self- structured awareness scale was used to gather the required information. 15 % households from each of the selected village were included in the sample. Total 125 respondents were selected using simple random sampling without replacement. It was found that age and income level of the respondents were the significant factors that decide knowledge regarding UHC(Universal Health Coverage). Knowledge level of the respondent has an impact on people’s perception. Knowledge level of the respondents was found to be good. While overall perception towards Universal Health Coverage was good. Respondents had moderate perception level towards Universal Health Care services. They were facing constraints in accessing the healthcare services like unavailability of doctor at Public & Community Health Centres, high expenses of health services, unavailability of funds to spend on healthcare services. | en_US |
