Legislation For NHI Regulations To Be Brought To Cabinet Soon

0

Legislation for the National Health Insurance Programme (NHI) regulations is expected to be brought to the Grenada cabinet for approval soon.

Thatโ€™s according to Health Minister Nicholas Steele who was at the time engaging individuals in the Diaspora last week.

The Government of Grenada reportedly signed a nine-month contract with a Miami-based firm, the Joint Independent Provider Association, (JIPA) to complete the process of development for implementation of the NHI.

JIPA is headed by Grenadian-born and USA-trained neurologist, Dr. Kester Nedd.

The agreement which took effect 29th October 2019 is seen as a โ€œgame-changer for the healthcare system here.

Steele says the NHI plan, soon to become a reality, is an equitable programme.
