FRANK OKWAN (10513128) Supervisors Declaration We hereby certify that this thesis was prepared from the candidate’s own work and supervised in accordance with guidelines on supervision of thesis laid down by the University of Ghana. SIGNATURE:……………………. DATE:………………………………. PROF. O.A.Y JACKSON (Supervisor) SIGNATURE:……………………… DATE:…………………………….. PROF. J.B. OFOSU (Co-Supervisor) ii University of Ghana http://ugspace.ug.edu.gh ABSTRACT This thesis provides an assessment of the effectiveness of the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) in Ghana implemented by Act 650 and L.I 1809, 2004. This assessment is done by taking the Akuapem South Mutual Health Insurance Scheme, selected health facilities in the Nsawam- Adoagyiri Municipality and Akuapem South District that provides health insurance services and health insurance users as case study. The selected health facilities are the Nsawam Government Hospital, Pokrom Health Centre, Kom Presby Clinic and New Life Hospital. The purpose of this study was to try to use statistical tools such as regression and hypothesis to determine whether the scheme is effective by using both primary and secondary data. The study employed quantitative and qualitative approach which used secondary and primary data. The study also used descriptive and inferential statistics to analyse the data. The analysis done on secondary data on enrolment recorded from 2010 to 2013 on monthly revealed that enrolment has increased over the period. This is to verify whether there has been an increase in enrolment onto the scheme since its implementation in the study area. Data collected on a number of claims paid to service providers by the scheme also showed that health insurance usage has also increased from 2007 to 2013 on monthly basis. The finding of the study has revealed that 72.9% of respondents who participated in the study to assess the effectiveness of the Nation Health Insurance Scheme responded that the health insurance scheme implemented by Act 650 and L.I 1809, 2004, is effective and can be made more effective if claims payments to service providers are not delayed. iii University of Ghana http://ugspace.ug.edu.gh DEDICATION I dedicate this thesis to the Almighty God for his faithfulness, mercies and endless favour He bestowed on me throughout the trials and tribulation years of my days on campus.

    AKWAPIM SOUTH DISTRICT Copyright © 2014 Ghana Statistical Service i PREFACE AND ACKNOWLEDGEMENT No meaningful developmental activity can be undertaken without taking into account the characteristics of the population for whom the activity is targeted. The size of the population and its spatial distribution, growth and change over time, in addition to its socio-economic characteristics are all important in development planning. A population census is the most important source of data on the size, composition, growth and distribution of a country’s population at the national and sub-national levels. Data from the 2010 Population and Housing Census (PHC) will serve as reference for equitable distribution of national resources and government services, including the allocation of government funds among various regions, districts and other sub-national populations to education, health and other social services. The Ghana Statistical Service (GSS) is delighted to provide data users, especially the Metropolitan, Municipal and District Assemblies, with district-level analytical reports based on the 2010 PHC data to facilitate their planning and decision-making. The District Analytical Report for the Akwapim South District is one of the 216 district census reports aimed at making data available to planners and decision makers at the district level. In addition to presenting the district profile, the report discusses the social and economic dimensions of demographic variables and their implications for policy formulation, planning and interventions. The conclusions and recommendations drawn from the district report are expected to serve as a basis for improving the quality of life of Ghanaians through evidence-based decision-making, monitoring and evaluation of developmental goals and intervention programmes.
