The Federal Government has unveiled plans to enroll 44 million Nigerians into the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) by 2030 to curb high out-of-pocket healthcare spending.
The government reaffirmed its commitment to citizens’ health through innovative and sustainable financing.
Dr. Iziaq Salako, Minister of State for Health and Social Welfare, disclosed this on Monday at the opening of the National Health Financing Policy Dialogue in Abuja, where stakeholders gathered to deliberate on ways to reshape the nation’s health financing landscape.
