As part of efforts to achieve Universal Health Coverage (UHC), the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) has launched an initiative, the Groups, Individuals and Family Social Health Insurance Programme (GIFSHIP) in Auchi, Edo State.
The programme which was launched nationally in Abuja by the Minister of Health, Dr Osagie Ehanire in November last year, is the scheme’s main vehicle of enrollment especially in the non-formal sector of the economy.
In a statement signed by the Head, Media and Public Relations, Mr. Emmanuel Ononokpono, the NGIS said that GIFSHIP will be available every where in the country,
