The Minority caucus in Parliament is demanding an apology from the Finance Minister, Dr Cassiel Ato Forson, for the government's supposed failure to fulfill its promise to uncap funding for the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS).
Addressing journalists on Tuesday, March 4, the Member of Parliament for Effiduase Asokore, Dr Ayew Afriye, accused the National Democratic Congress (NDC) of failing to deliver on its campaign pledge to remove the cap on NHIS funding.
He argued that the previous administration's restrictions had negatively impacted the National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA).
Dr Afriye criticised the Finance Minister's recent statement at the National Economic Dialogue, where he cited financial shortfalls and resource mismanagement within the NHIA as reasons for maintaining the cap.
