We will support the teams to have access to medical consultants,&#8221; said Dr Okoe Boye.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;NHIA is committed to working hard to ensure that every Ghanaian has a medical insurance cover. We have a duty to make sure that every Ghanaian knows about the NHIS. Whatever we will invest to drive up the numbers we will do it.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The sad thing is that half of Ghana&#8217;s population are not medically insured not because they cannot afford but sometimes, they don&#8217;t care. This is the biggest human security threat,&#8221; he added.<\/p>\n<p>The deal will see the logo of the NHIS emboldened on the jerseys of all the four clubs while the NHIA will also provide medical services during match days.<\/p>\n<p>Representatives of the clubs present at the unveiling of the partnership expressed gratitude to the NHIS, insisting it will help ease the burden of medical cost.<\/p>\n<p>The Ghana Premier League begins on Friday September 9, 2022.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/ghana\">Ghana<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Ghana.
