This research explains how Turkey has achieved universal health care. After the Justice and Development party(AKP) seized power in 2002, it tried to enforce the new healthcare program, the Health Transformation Program to compensate its central electoral base. Yet the medical personnel and main trade unions — TÜRK-İŞ, HAK-IŞ, and DISK strongly opposed the reform. The health-related workers recognized the newly implemented program would jeopardize their job security while the main trade unions tried to protect their union members that consisted of formal workers. Yet HAK-IŞ and the government had affinity each other in that both shared the same ideology — Islam. After AKP came into power, HAK-IŞ took advantage of the affinity and took AKP's side, in return the AKP helped HAK-IŞ to enlarge its power and members by forcing workers to enroll HAK-IŞ members. Based on the symbiotic relationship between the two, the health care reform could be enforced throughout Social Dialogue among the government, the employer and the employees
Abstract
