The National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA) says it has successfully disbursed GH¢270 million to healthcare providers across the country to cover claims submitted and vetted up to October 2024 and part of November 2024.
The NHIA is a statement issued on January 3, 2025, stated that the timely payment will ensure that it remains within the agreed-upon three-month reimbursement period and currently has no outstanding vetted claims to pay.
This latest disbursement brings the total amount released by the NHIA over the past four months to over GH¢1.2 billion, demonstrating the Authority's commitment to supporting healthcare providers.
The prompt payment regime, introduced earlier in 2024, has played a crucial role in maintaining a debt-free status and ensuring timely reimbursements to healthcare providers nationwide.
