The Second WHO Global Forum on Medical Devices ‘Priority Medical Devices for Universal Health Coverage’ was held on the 22-24 November 2013 in Geneva, Switzerland.
It provided the global public health community with opportunities for information exchange and collaboration to increase access to high-quality, safe, and appropriate priority medical devices.
