The announcement by the Ministry of Health and Prevention (MoHAP) regarding the progress of the National Health Survey 2024 provides several key insights and highlights:
The National Health Survey 2024 has achieved a 95% completion rate, while the National Nutrition Survey has reached 78% completion.
The surveys aim to enhance the UAE’s health system by aligning it with international best practices and adopting innovative healthcare solutions. This initiative includes improving the country’s ranking in global health competitiveness indices.
Institutional integration and strategic partnerships have facilitated progress. The organizations involve MoHAP, the Federal Competitiveness and Statistics Centre, local statistical centres, and other relevant health authorities. These partnerships utilize cutting-edge technologies and international methodologies for data collection and analysis.
The surveys employ advanced scientific methods and international methodologies endorsed by the World Health Organization (WHO) and local health authorities. Researchers collect data through personal interviews during field visits and distribute electronic questionnaires in multiple languages (Arabic, English, Hindi, and Urdu).
The surveys track a broad spectrum of health and nutrition indicators. These include socio-economic factors, household health expenditures, prevalence of non-communicable diseases, biophysical measurements, access to healthcare, micronutrient deficiencies, dietary intake, child growth metrics, and maternal health.
The surveys are crucial for shaping the future of the UAE’s health sector by providing key insights that guide decision-making and the development of innovative health policies. These policies will focus on prevention and treatment, aiming to improve the quality of life for all UAE residents.
The surveys support the digital transformation of the health sector by analyzing key indicators that promote sustainable development. The Ministry invests resources where they are needed most, demonstrating its commitment to building a world-class healthcare system.
The collective effort of all involved partners and the cooperation of families and the community contribute to the success of the surveys. Their participation is essential for building a healthier, more sustainable society.
In summary, the National Health Survey 2024 is a comprehensive initiative. The initiative collects accurate and reliable data to develop effective health policies, enhance the healthcare sector, and improve the overall well-being of the UAE’s population. The high completion rates and collaborative efforts underscore the commitment to achieving these goals.
