Will Saint Lucia see the first phase of a National Health Insurance (NHI) programme as early as the end of this year?
A release from the government seems to state the affirmative which indicated that the implementation of such a programme will mark a major milestone in the island’s health care system.
Health Planner in the Department of Health & Wellness, Lauren James explains that the first phase of the NHI system will include an essential package of health services at the Primary care level geared at tackling non-communicable diseases.
