Wife of the governor, Dr. Ibijoke Sanwo-Olu, who disclosed this, yesterday, at the celebration of the Year 2020 Universal Healthcare Coverage (UHC) Day organised by the Lagos State Health Management Agency (LASHMA), said that the development became necessary in view of the fact that the government recognises that not everyone can afford the premium of the LSHS.
Dr. Sanwo-Olu, represented by a former Permanent Secretary in the state, Dr. Bola Balogun, said: “It is gratifying to note that the governor appreciates the fact that not everyone can afford the premium, and has approved the release of funds from the equity to provide free healthcare within the Lagos State Health Scheme for 50,000 orphans, elderly and vulnerable.”
