HMO targets informal sector, boosts digital healthcare push

Ultimate Health HMO is making a significant move to broaden access to health insurance in Nigeria by targeting the informal sector. This strategic expansion aims to bring more individuals into the fold of health coverage, a critical step towards achieving universal health coverage across the nation.

The HMO plans to utilize digital solutions to streamline the process of acquiring and managing health insurance for those in the informal economy. This approach is expected to enhance convenience and accessibility, overcoming traditional barriers that have often excluded this segment of the population from formal health insurance schemes.

By focusing on the informal sector, Ultimate Health HMO is not only looking to increase its customer base but also to contribute to improved compliance with health insurance regulations. This initiative underscores a growing trend of healthcare providers adopting technology to reach underserved populations and fulfill national health objectives.
