2022 OCT 28 (NewsRx) -- By a News Reporter-Staff News Editor at Health Policy and Law Daily -- Investigators publish new report on agriculture. According to news reporting originating from Tehran, Iran, by NewsRx correspondents, research stated, “One of the serious challenges regarding interactions between Iran’s social security system and health system is basic health insurance stewardship.”

Our news correspondents obtained a quote from the research from Tehran University of Medical Sciences: “It has existed for a long time and has been given a special place concerning the related laws and policies in recent years. In this regard, it seems that approving of rules conflicting with upstream laws and policies has increased existing conflicts. This is done by creating ambiguity in the position of basic health insurance. But, it should not be forgotten that the main goal is universal health coverage and effective insurance protection against financial risks caused by illness.”

According to the news reporters, the research concluded: “Therefore, any decision in these areas should be made with respect to the social, cultural, economic and political conditions of the country and according to the historical experiences and structural characteristics.”
