The National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA) has released an additional GH¢135.6 million to healthcare providers nationwide.
This disbursement is to settle outstanding claims for February 2024 for higher-tier healthcare providers and March 2024 for most lower-tier facilities.
The payment seeks to reduce the gap between higher and lower-tier facility payments, ensuring that the only outstanding payments owed by the Authority are within the agreed three-month reimbursable period.
This latest disbursement follows an earlier release of GH¢300 million to mixed-tier health facilities across the country.
According to NHIA CEO Dr Da-Costa Aboagye, the Authority recognises the vital role healthcare providers play in the success of the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) and is committed to maintaining a strong partnership with facilities while preventing illegal charges.
