During a meeting with clergy members in Bolgatanga as part of his Upper East Region campaign tour, Dr. Bawumia revealed that dialysis treatment has been included under the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS).
The government has already invested GH¢2 million to support dialysis treatment across the country, aiming to make it more accessible and affordable for Ghanaians suffering from kidney disease.
Dr. Bawumia emphasized that kidney disease is a significant health challenge for many Ghanaians, and the cost of treatment has been a barrier for too long. By incorporating dialysis into the NHIS, the government is taking a major step toward ensuring that every Ghanaian has access to necessary medical care, regardless of their financial situation.
According to the Dr. Bawumia, if given the mandate, his administration would prioritize bringing advanced medical technology to Ghana, modernizing the country’s healthcare infrastructure, and providing the best possible care for its citizens. By investing in technology and healthcare, the government can improve the quality of life for countless Ghanaians.
The clergy and Muslim members at the meeting in Bolgatanga expressed their support for the initiative, noting the potential positive impact on their communities.
This development is a significant step forward in addressing the healthcare challenges faced by Ghanaians, and Dr. Bawumia’s commitment to prioritizing healthcare is a welcome move for many.
