The DG expressed excitement over the development during the official launch of enrollment of citizens of Kogi State into health insurance in Lokoja, describing the effort as historic.

In a statement made available by the acting director, Media and PR Unit of NHIA, Emmanuel Ononokpono, the DG further noted that the enrollment of the State’s civil servants under the formal sector programme and persons under the Basic Health Care Provision Programme (BHCPF), was a significant milestone in the overall effort to achieving Universal health Coverage (UHC), in the country.

He stressed that health insurance is a critical tool for reducing health poverty, while expressing the federal government’s determination to achieve UHC.

He said the objective can only be speedily attained through the synergy between the NHIA and state governments.
