The Federal Government is saying that it is working towards procuring essential medicines and healthcare products.
The Coordinating Minister of Health and Social Welfare, Professor Muhammad Ali Pate made this known in Abuja during the commemoration of the Universal Health Coverage Day.
He says that the three-year Presidential initiative for Unlocking Healthcare Value Chain was unveiled a year ago to save lives, reduce physical and financial pain, and produce health for all Nigerians.
The Minister states that the government is undertaking deliberate and well-considered measures that will impact Nigeria’s economy positively and reduce both physical and financial pain, which aligns with the goal of the UCH to reduce out-of-pocket health expenditure and impoverishment from healthcare spending.
