The marvel of an un-costed NHI
The National Health Insurance (NHI) has been top of mind among the country’s healthcare brokers and medical schemes citizens ever since it emerged that government intended medical schemes to function as insurers of last resort, covering only non-NHI medical procedures. Citizens, meanwhile, and more specifically those who pay the taxes, are more concerned over government’s ongoing refusal to reveal what the scheme will and will not cover and exactly how much dosh taxpayers will have to chip in for it. Over a decade since the NHI was first proposed, we remain almost completely in the dark about these critical aspects.
