THE NATIONAL HEALTH INSURANCE AUTHORITY OF NIGERIA AND IMPLICATIONS FOR UNIVERSAL HEALTH COVERAGE.

2024Open accessUniversity of Ibadan

Abstract

Presently, population coverage under the NHIA is very poor. The informal sector, especially in rural settings, is mostly at a disadvantage. This is unlike in the majority of other countries, which encourage population coverage across both the formal and informal sectors. Stakeholders in the health insurance industry are encouraged to make the scheme mandatory and enforce it. The PHC facilities should also be engaged as service providers under the NHIA.
