  1. Consolidation of health systems
  2. Universal health coverage
  3. Technology and digital transformation

Biju acknowledges the significant role of the private sector in complementing the efforts of the public sector in delivering health services across the continent. However, he notes that despite progress made, there is still much to be done to increase the affordability of high-quality healthcare for everyone on the continent.
