Ylva Julia Margareta Johansson (born February 13, 1964 in Huddinge, Stockholm) is a Swedish Social Democratic politician. She was Minister for Health and Elderly Care in the Ministry of Health and Social Affairs of the Swedish government until the election 2006.

Ylva Johansson studied at Lund University and the Stockholm Institute of Education 1983-88 and 1991-92 and holds a Master of Science in education. In the 1988 general elections she was elected as a member of the Riksdag for the [Left Party (Sweden) [Left Party - Communists] (VPK). She later left the party and joined the Social Democrats.

From 1992 to 1994 she worked as a teacher, until Prime Minister Ingvar Carlsson made her Minister for Schools in his government. In 1998, in a somewhat unusual press release, she and the then Minister for Finance Erik Åsbrink announced their wish to "publicly confirm that we are in love" and their intention to separate from their respective partners. Soon afterwards, Ylva Johansson left the government. The following years, she worked in the private sector.

In 2004, Prime Minister Göran Persson appointed Ylva Johansson to the government in a new position, as Minister for Health and Elderly Care, succeeding Lars Engqvist.

She has two children with her former husband Bo Hammar and a son with Erik Åsbrink.
