The Member of Parliament (MP) for Tamale South, Haruna Iddrisu, has expressed concern over the National Health Insurance Authority\u2019s (NHIA) allocation of GH\u00a22 million for dialysis support to needy patients this year.<\/p>\n

He believes that an allocation of GH\u00a210 million would have been more sufficient.<\/p>\n

In response to a report on the proposed formula for the disbursement of the National Health Insurance Fund, in Parliament on Wednesday, the MP stated that the authority could allocate GH\u00a210 million, given the national emergency of the lack of dialysis centres across the country.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is a national emergency of the absence of dialysis centres across the country. We have an opportunity as parliament to allocate money for the purpose of saving lives and saving persons who may be suffering from dialysis.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cMr Speaker I do not think that the amount of GH\u00a22million is enough particularly when you consider the Corporate Social Responsibility allocation of the same authority of GH\u00a230 million.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt least an amount of GH\u00a210 million should be set aside for purposes of supporting interventions related to dialysis whether in Accra, Kumasi, Tamale, or Bolga,\u201d he noted.<\/p>\n\n
