The objectives of UHC Pilots in Karnataka as defined in the project proposal are: • To expand the coverage for population that is currently left uncovered or is partially covered by health services through systematic mapping and prioritizations based on vulnerability and create mechanisms for gradually progressing to include the other population sub-groups. • To determine a comprehensive package of essential health services that can be guaranteed to the people of Karnataka and undertake strategic effort to provide them in an assured manner. The prioritization of services would be based on the service needs of people, availability of resources, technological considerations etc. • To widen the coverage of financial risk protection by ensuring that healthcare is financed through various schemes or prepayment mechanisms allowing pooling of funds that can be redistributed to reduce financial barriers for individuals who find it difficult to avail the unaffordable services. • To identify and select the feasible options of healthcare delivery and also understand the financial, human resources and other institutional requirements for a state
