Management of the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) has announced that as part of the NHIS Week, the President Nana Addo Dankwa Akufo-Addo has granted a waiver, for those who take advantage of the offer in this week, for the scrapping of the one month waiting period for delayed renewals and new registrations.
The Insurance Authority is encouraging all 23.1 million residents of Ghana who have registered to use this opportunity to renew their membership which starts from 9th to 14th November 2020.
According to management, those who have a Ghana Card and NHIS card can do the linkage and the Ghana Card to access healthcare.
By dialing the short code *929# and following the prompts, holders of the two cards can now link their National Health Insurance Cards to the Ghana Card and use the Ghana Card to access health care at any accredited National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) facility across the nation.
