Benefits Package

In Ghana, National Health Insurance Act 852 of 2012 ensures that health-care benefits include family planning (FP) services, however people continue to pay for FP services because the policy is yet to be implemented in practice. Under the leadership of the Ministry of Health, the National Health Insurance Authority in collaboration with the Ghana Health Service, Marie Stopes International-Ghana and the Population Council implemented a pilot project to remove FP service out-of-pocket costs. All modern clinical FP methods were added to national health insurance and expensed by health facilities through the national health insurance claims process. The intervention significantly increased the number of new acceptors of FP services and increased uptake of specific methods. According to this report, the pilot also demonstrated that FP can be included in the national health insurance benefits package without setbacks as health facilities were able to process their claims. As stakeholders consider scaling up the intervention of including FP into the national health insurance benefits package, it is important to assess the availability of FP services and readiness of health facilities for the scale-up.

Abstract Background Bypassing occurs when patients knowingly visit a health facility other than the one they live nearest to. In Ibadan, southwest Nigeria, the majority of enrollees in the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) receive medical care in just 12% of the available NHIS-accredited facilities. Given that enrollees access healthcare services at highly subsidized rates under the scheme, this study aimed to determine the factors responsible for the observed distribution of enrollees across these health facilities. Methods The study was a descriptive cross-sectional survey conducted among NHIS enrollees receiving care at outpatient departments of five randomly selected accredited health facilities in Ibadan. A total of 311 NHIS enrollees were consecutively recruited and a semistructured, pretested, interviewer-administered questionnaire was used to elicit information from respondents. Descriptive and inferential statistics were used to present results at 5% level of significance. Distance traveled by patients from their residence to the facilities was measured using Google maps. Results The mean age of respondents was 37.1±16.1 y. There were 167 (53.7%) males and 224 (72.3%) were married. The bypassing rate was 174 (55.3%). More than a third of enrollees, 127 (41.0%), reported that their hospital choice was made based on physician referral, 130 (41.8%) based on personal choice, 26 (8.4%) based upon the recommendation of the Health Management Organization (HMO), while 27 (8.7%) were influenced by friends/family/colleagues. Bypassing was positively associated with educational status (X2 = 13.147, p=0.004). Respondents who bypassed expended additional time and money traveling to the farther away hospitals, 35.1 (±34.66) min and 389.51 (±545.21) naira per visit, respectively. Conclusion The level of bypassing among enrollees was fairly high. Enrollees should be properly guided regarding the need to access healthcare in facilities closer to them by their HMOs and physicians in the case of referrals. This will reduce bypassing and the cost of travel leading to better outcomes among enrollees.

Background: National health insurance is mandatory for all Indonesians. In Ogan Ilir Regency, the lowest percentage (24,14%) of its participants in December 2016 was found in Indralaya Utara Sub-district, and self-employed participants in this sub-district were only 6,99%. This study aimed to analyze the determinants of the self-employed’s decision to become national health insurance participants in Indralaya Utara Sub-district. Method: This was a cross-sectional study. The population was self-employed in Indralaya Utara Sub-district. The sample was 108 respondents who were selected using cluster sampling and consecutive sampling techniques. Data analysis was conducted by univariate and bivariate with chi-square statistical test. Results: The results illustrated that 18,52% of respondents decided to become national health insurance participants. Variables with p-value<0,005 were: knowledge about national health insurance (p-value=0,011), trust (p-value=0.000), perception about national health insurance (p-value=0,000), attitude (p-value=0,000), income (p-value=0,002), family support (p-value=0,005). Variables with p-value≥0,005 were: education (p-value=0,234), perception about health facilities (p-value=0,162), distance to health facilities (p-value=0,355), health workers support (p-value=0,112). Conclusion:  In conclusion, percentage of self-employed who decided become national health insurance participants was still small. Associated factors to the decision of self-employed as participants were: knowledge about national health insurance, trust, perception about national health insurance, attitude, income and family support. It is suggested that the Social Security Administrative Body for Health should routinely conduct socialization on national health insurance to improve the percentage of its participation for self-employed and the benefits of national health insurance could be felt by the entire community.

Ghana is working toward achieving universal health coverage (UHC). This is driven, in part, by the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), specifically SDG 3—Good Health and Well-Being, which seeks to ensure healthy lives and promote well-being for all at all ages. Achieving this feat will improve equity of access as people, especially the poor can access quality health services without financial hardships. Ensuring equitable access to family planning (FP) is essential to securing the well-being of women and supporting the health and development of communities. One pathway to ensuring equity is the inclusion of FP in affordable insurance. While the inclusion of FP in the National Health Insurance Scheme is critical to the equity of FP distribution, the issues identified in this brief would have to be addressed before or in the course of scale-up to achieve the desired results.
