Funding Information: Transparency and accountability were important in Thailand during both normal and crucial situations such as the COVID-19 pandemic. For universal health coverage, values such as the right to health and equity are fundamental. For health security, values such as solidarity, active citizens, and high voluntarism are also very relevant. Thailand's holistic approach was also reflected in financing. Universal health coverage was financed through general taxes and not from external funding. Indicators suggest there was decreasing personal health expenditure and increasing domestic funding for health. Health security received designated funding from the universal health coverage scheme. Health promotion also received designated funding via the universal health coverage scheme, including a 2% surcharge on tobacco and alcohol that was directly transferred to the Thai Health Promotion Office's budget.
