Country Y previously operated a mixed healthcare system with basic public coverage for hospital care and limited subsidies for outpatient services, leaving many low-income adults with significant co-payments. After a national election, a new leadership coalition prioritized inclusion and administrative simplification, arguing that untreated chronic illness reduced workforce participation. The government adapted policy by adding primary care visits to the standard benefits package, expanding eligibility for subsidized prescriptions, and creating automatic enrollment for certain low-income groups using tax records. Within two years, preventive visits increased and reported cost-related delays in care fell, though the health budget grew moderately and opposition parties criticized implementation speed. Based on the passage, how did the political shift influence the adaptation of Country Y's healthcare policy?​
