A shout-out to Ashish K. Jha, MD, MPH for spending the day with us at #GHEcon2018 and reminding us that Universal Health Coverage without quality controls may do more harm than good (India beware!). Most thoughtful analysis of pitfalls of UHC I’ve ever seen. UCSF School of Medicine StanfordHealthPolicy 2/3
