If the said HCF is accredited under NHIS then the HMO should be involved for federal cases but if the HCF is not accredited by NHIS then no, NHIS cannot do anything about that.
It's accredited, please can i get a guide as to how to address the letter to the HMO?

Is there an age limit

GIFSHIP still have the same benefits as VCSHIP

GIFSHIP stands for Group, Individual, Family Social Health Insurance Program therefore Individual covers 1-3 people, Family covers 4-9 people and Group is 10 to infinity.

You cannot register yourself online as only selected staff have codes that is used to register enrollees. Even with the lockdown NHIS is open to attending to enrollees

NHIS covers all age

One more question please.

I understand NIN is a most to enroll members of your family, in a case where by I have a child less than 2 years. Will I still need to present NIN for the child before I can enroll the child and also what's the process duration. VCSHIP took 2 months, will this take same period of time before I can start using it?

Yes NIN is compulsory now and a new born child can get NIN too. Duration is 1-3month for now depending on time of registration to when register comes out
Re: Nhis(national Health Insurance Scheme) by zedegit: 5:59am On Jan 10, 2021
Na scam. I remember how corpers were tasked #5000 for the scheme but never used it.

Multiply #5000 by 1million at least corps members in the whole of Nigeria.

That's #5 billion naira at least
Multiply by 3 batches each year .

That's #15 billion naira unaccounted for.

That's being modest by the way cos it's more than that.

Good evening,

I went to NHIS office and was told that the family plan is only for 4 people and also the number of HMO is restricted to only 7.

Does this mean that the other HMO will no longer participate again?

@upmanagers . Good morning and thanks for helping answer vital questions here. Please I registered for the individual category and made remital payment since on the 2nd of February this year. Its more than 3 months now and I am still told that my registration is no yet out. Is there anything I can do to expedite the process cause my wife is less than a month due for delivery and I am afraid I may have wasted 45k? Thank you. I earnestly anticipate your reply
Re: Nhis(national Health Insurance Scheme) by sultan204: 1:06am On Jun 04, 2021
Greeting to Upmanager and every one.
Thanks for your good work educating us here. First of all, I will be detailed so you can know precisely how to help me.
My case is very unique which I haven't got a satisfied answer from anyone or any platform yet. I believe you can assist me.
I am currently serving under the public sector (NPF precisely). recently, I was called upon that i need to update my biodata with my employer. Part of what I should provide is my NHIS ID Number and HMO. Now a three month written salary payment slip has been given to me to take to any health care provider of my choice under NHIS.
This is where I have problem, I am currently separated with my spouse which I don't know whether it could later lead to divorce but we have a daughter which is currently in her custody (that would change as soon as I am settled). I intend to enroll my daughter as a beneficiary and myself but we are in two different state very far apart (I work in the North and my daughter is in Southwest). I use single as marital status at my place of work. Please, i dont even know where to start from cos of all these complications and my employer are on my neck to update these info. Please how should i start this considering that my piority is to extend this benefit to my daughter (that's the most important concern why I have delayed choosing my HCP). Thanks in anticipation.

You don't have any problem. The only problem I see is that you have sat down at a place fantasizing about an imaginary problem.

Go to the NHIS office nearest to you and update your records.

Nobody is interested in this your story.

When you get to the space for filling of your dependents, write her name and attach her passport.

You can go ahead to choose a different hospital for yourself in the north and choose a hospital in the southwest for your daughter. It doesn't matter whether you are single to add your daughter. If you settle with your wife can add her later.
Hope this helps

Registration takes 90days after payment with the RRR code given to you after registration in any NHIS office.
Take my number from the begining of this post and send me a WhatsApp message so I can get more details from you and also help you check
