Bodi (WNR), May 30, GNA- Mr Padmore Yaw Nti-Gyebi, the Bodi District Manager for National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA), has appealed to Health Providers to desist from charging holders of active NHIS cards who patronized their facilities to access healthcare.
He said the practice was a breach of the contractual agreement between such facilities and the National Health Insurance Authority.
Mr Nti-Gyebi who was speaking at the 2022 Second Quarter provider review meeting at Sefwi-Bodi, also advised the Health Providers to submit their claims on time for prompt payment.
The Authority also used the opportunity to sensitise the providers on how to link their card to the Ghana card to access Heath Care.
The District Chief Executive of the area, Mr Ignatius Akwasi Amankwah, urged the providers to operate within their mandate and deploy the needed technology for real time response.
The former District Chief Executive for Bia District, Mr John Koah also graced the occasion.
