Government bids to end medical shortfalls

13

THE government says it is working on modalities to ensure health insurance policyholders are not charged shortfalls, at a time medical aid societies collected ZWL$21 billion from contributors in 2021.

At the 13th annual all stakeholders’ conference on health held by the Association of Healthcare Funders of Zimbabwe (AHFoZ) in Victoria Falls recently, Vice President Constantino Chiwenga, who is also the Health minister, said shortfalls were deterrents and retrogressive to the objectives of medical insurance.
