Professor Oheneba Boachie-Adjei, President of the Foundation of Orthopaedics and Complex Spine , has called on the government to extend the National Health Insurance Scheme to cover the treatment of orthopaedic care. Prof Boachie who is also Professor Emeritus of Orthopaedic Surgery said: “If the cost of treatment is GH? 10,000.00 for instance, the NHIS could decide to take up GH? 2000.00 as the patient takes care of the rest, which we can help to make part payment and start a payment plan.”
