The COVID-19 pandemic has disrupted global supply chains and highlighted the need for policy coordination to boost economic prosperity and well- being for all. Despite the inclusion of COVID-19 recovery and economic and social security in G20 action plans, significant developmental gaps preventing the equitable and affordable access to quality healthcare still need to be addressed among the grouping’s members.WhileCOVID-19hasdisrupted healthcare supply chains, balancing inclusive access to health and social services with sectoral modernisation is an ongoing challenge. In response to these challenges, this brief proposes three policy strategies: (i) promoting further trade liberalisation of health- related and social services, (ii) counterbalancing the adverse impacts of the liberalisation and deregulation of the sector, and (iii) enhancing supply chain resilience in the healthcare industry through depoliticisation and international cooperation.
