Ultimate Health Management Services is seeking deeper collaboration with corporate leaders and governance institutions to expand access to affordable health insurance across Nigeria’s largely uninsured informal sector, as part of a renewed push to reduce the country’s heavy reliance on out-of-pocket healthcare spending.
The initiative was highlighted on Thursday in Lagos when a delegation from the Chartered Institute of Directors Nigeria, led by Assistant Director Adekemi Parker, visited the health maintenance organisation for discussions on partnership opportunities aimed at strengthening health insurance penetration and improving governance standards in the sector.
