NHIS active membership jumps from 56% to 70% - Health Minister

Mr Akandoh said the various interventions were part of a broader government strategy to strengthen Ghana’s health system, expand access to quality healthcare and move the country closer to achieving Universal Health Coverage.

Mr Akandoh said the uncapping of the National Health Insurance Levy had provided the scheme with additional resources to meet its financial obligations to healthcare providers.

According to the Minister, the increase reflects efforts by the government to strengthen the financial position of the NHIS and improve access to healthcare across the country.
