The Kano State Contributory Healthcare Management Agency (KSCHMA) and the private sector have announced the activation of a joint monitoring team with representatives from the labour union to ensure employee enrollment into the healthcare scheme.
This initiative was detailed in a communique issued at the end of a three-day consultative workshop organised by the agency in collaboration with FCDO Lafiya, held at Quarter House Hotel, Kaduna.
The communique calls for the appointment of an Organised Private Sector (OPS) focal person and the issuance of introductory letters to all private companies, industries, and factories to notify them about the scheme.
Jointly signed by the chairman and secretary, Nasiru Yusuf Ibrahim and Malam Aliyu M. Zakari respectively, the communique urged the OPS leadership to meet with their affiliate unions to brief them on KSCHMA services.

“KSCHMA should engage the services of technical persons who would work with the leadership of Organised Private Sector (OPS) unions in mapping out private companies, industries, factories, etc., for further engagements,” it added.
Participants also recommended that the agency initiate the revalidation of private health facilities engaged under the scheme, similar to the process followed by NHIS.
