- GH¢267.67 million disbursed to settle health facility claims vetted up to April 2025
- Total payments exceed GH¢1.5 billion in the past seven months
- Funds distributed across public (45%), private (37%), and mission (17%) health facilities
The National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA) has released an additional GH¢267.67 million to settle claims submitted by health facilities across the country.
The payment, authorized by NHIA Chief Executive Dr. Victor Asare-Bampoe, covers claims vetted through April 2025.
This disbursement raises the total amount paid by the NHIA over the past seven months to more than GH¢1.5 billion, underscoring the Authority’s commitment to maintaining the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) and ensuring continued support for healthcare providers.
Breakdown of the GH¢267.67 million includes:
- GH¢120.7 million (45%) for public health facilities
- GH¢100.2 million (37%) for private facilities
- GH¢46.7 million (17%) for mission-based facilities
The NHIA noted that its prompt payment policy, introduced earlier this year, has allowed it to remain debt-free in 2025 while ensuring timely reimbursement to service providers nationwide.
The Authority reaffirmed that these payments fall in line with its core mandate—to fund healthcare services listed under the NHIS Benefit Package, which covers more than 95% of disease conditions treated in Ghana.
