For several decades, the issue of coverage and access to health services has been frequently debated. The objective of this communication is to contribute to the debate based on the concrete experiences of the Cuban National Health System in the last six decades. A bibliographic and official document review of the Cuban National Health System was carried out. A brief synthesis of the Cuban experience is presented. It can be said that Cuba reached universal coverage around 2010-2015 with the model of the family doctor and nurse.

Palabras clave : health; universal coverage; access.
