For Nigeria to attain Universal Health Coverage (UHC), experts have suggested that expanding the private sector’s involvement in healthcare delivery can lead to more affordable and high-quality healthcare options for Nigerians, as well as addressing a critical need in the country’s healthcare system.
At the just concluded 2024 Private Sector Health Alliance of Nigeria (PSHAN) annual conference in Lagos, leading experts said that the private sector’s contribution to the provision of health insurance is vital for attaining UHC in Nigeria, with the sector accounting for over 60 percent of healthcare service delivery in the country.
