Cheap talk. Why subsidize health care for the poor? Who are the poor? This scam mentality is the reason the country will never move forward.

Well good move, but anything in Nigeria will have negative motive under, before u know some people will be looting the money saved by Nigerians for the health insurance
Re: Senate Wants Mandatory Health Insurance For All Nigerians by jaxxy(m): 8:01am On Feb 18, 2020
And where will the money come from? U need to eliminate corruption in government and all public sectors to achieve that.

What is health insurance

It's when health is insured
Re: Senate Wants Mandatory Health Insurance For All Nigerians by Nobody: 8:23am On Feb 18, 2020

Senator Oloriegbe is ill informed. Maternity admission or treatment is already made free in all PHCs all over the country, anti-natal is free also, hence lack of health insurance couldn't have been the cause of high natality.

General insurance is for those who have a positive balance sheet and not those who live from hand to mouth as the most Nigerian do.

This can only work IF health insurance is ridiculously cheap naturally, not on the basis of being subsidized by government, that will be another way to make the government poor the more.

Other way is to make sure available medicine and medical facilities are in good shape. Combat importation and sales of fake drugs as well
You are talking of PHC alone, what of general hospitals and teaching hospitals as well?? Thats what the senator wants. Mind you most phcs are understaffed and poorly equipped.

Anti-natal not free, even delivery not free, when I went to register my wife for anti-natal in a government hospital, Westley Guide Hospital Ilesa, registration for anti-natal is 16k, u will run some tests, all amounting to over 20k...

Thank God had already registered her for NHIS, i.e after the whole calculation they did, I only paid 10% of the money calculated..in fact, that very day, some pregnant women who are not on NHIS had to return home because of the registration money that was too high..

You now know the funniest thing, once the hospital know you have NHIS, some drugs the NHIS covers will suddenly not be available, they will refer you to a pharmacy outside own by them them....

It is a nice proposition, but since it will be about helping the poor, it is dead already
Why won't it die when the poor are very many and are the ones bringing children into the world without control. I just hope they have a way to fund it.

This is laughable because this benefits the north more... When one man has four wives and 27 children and counting with no sustainable means of livelihood. How do you take care of them?
