About MedAccess Trust
MedAccess Trust is a company with a mission to advance access to affordable healthcare products and services.
By working with partners such as MedAccess Guarantee Ltd., governments, other industry participants and civil society, we support underserved populations to access the same level of healthcare consumed by high-income countries.
Our core objectives are to:
- enable access to appropriate and affordable healthcare products and services by working with governments and partners in industry and civil society
- advance education and research into health outcomes and inequalities; healthcare systems; and barriers to healthcare access.
What we do
By focusing on underserved populations, we improve the health of people most at risk from poor healthcare provision, typically those in poverty and difficult circumstances across the world.
We do this by funding organisations such as MedAccess Guarantee Ltd., which use innovative finance tools to support the delivery of more accessible healthcare.
We focus on the causes and solutions of healthcare failure in low- and middle-income countries, and provide education and promote research on related matters for the benefit of the public.
We aim to increase understanding and knowledge of the way in which healthcare systems work and fail, as well as supporting the solutions to address these failures.
