Following a systematic and inclusive planning and design process, Lagos State is set to commence implementation of the Strategic Initiative towards the attainment of Universal Health Coverage for all residents of Lagos State. The scheme is to be rolled out in stages across the entire State.
In the spirit of equity and affordability, the program has a pro-poor component with the establishment of the equity fund set aside to pay premiums for those who cannot pay for themselves. In addition, the Plan to be rolled out ab-initio is the Lagos State Health Plan (LSHP) which is a moderately priced basic health plan featuring largely primary care and some secondary care to ensure affordability for the majority.
To herald the introduction of this historic and long-awaited state initiative, the launch of the LSHS has been scheduled to hold as follows:
Date: Tuesday, December 18, 2018.
Time: 10:30am
Venue: The Civic Centre, Ozumba Mbadiwe Road Eti-Osa, Lagos.
As a key partner in the Lagos State Health Agenda, your presence is important and will be appreciated. This invitation is open to all financial members of the HFN.
We look forward to receiving you at the launch.
Thank you.
