The Vice President, Prof. Yemi Osibajo has called for public private partnership (PPP) for effective healthcare delivery in Nigeria.
The Vice President made this call in Abuja at the weekend at a stakeholder’s meeting involving key players in the health sector towards scaling up innovative solutions for efficient health care systems through Public Private Partnership (PPP).
He noted that Public Private Partnership was vital towards achieving Universal Health Coverage (UHC) through primary healthcare. He stressed the need for a comprehensive National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) to ensure quality healthcare delivery to the citizenry,adding that the Federal Government cannot finance healthcare from public funds alone hence the participation of the private sector was pertinent.
Earlier, in his welcome address, the Minister of State for Health, Dr.Osagie Ehanire said that the Federal Ministry of Health, FMOH, had embraced this Public Private Partnership initiative to leverage on the assets, competencies, resources, network and innovation of the sector to accelerate improvement in health outcomes.
