Mongolia, the world's second-largest landlocked country, has a healthcare system shaped by Soviet and Chinese influences. While its capital, Ulaanbaatar, houses nearly half of the population with well-developed medical facilities, rural and remote areas, including the Gobi region, face significant disparities in healthcare access. Urban migration to Ulaanbaatar is driven by better economic opportunities, healthcare services, and infrastructure. Traditional Mongolian medicine (TMM) remains an integral part of healthcare, particularly in rural areas, where it is often the primary form of treatment. Despite the adoption of universal healthcare coverage, rural healthcare struggles with workforce shortages, outdated infrastructure, and limited resources. Nurses and midwives lack professional autonomy, and preventive care remains underdeveloped. To address these challenges, Mongolia can strengthen global collaborations through its 'third neighbour policy', expanding partnerships with countries like the USA and Japan to improve healthcare education and workforce capacity. Enhancing online training, telemedicine, and disease prevention programmes, particularly in rural areas, would further support healthcare development. Expanding nursing and midwifery roles, integrating health screenings into community events, and leveraging digital health technologies can bridge healthcare gaps. A holistic approach integrating modern and traditional medicine can lead to a more resilient, accessible, and culturally appropriate healthcare system.
