In a move to reinforce Ghana’s health sector, Minister for Health Kwabena Mintah Akandoh has officially sworn in new board members for four key institutions, emphasizing their pivotal roles in healthcare regulation and financing as the nation advances toward universal health coverage.

The newly appointed boards oversee the Ghana College of Nurses and Midwives, Medical and Dental Council, National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA), and the Pharmacy Council.

These institutions are expected to play critical roles in addressing pressing healthcare challenges, including workforce attrition, non-communicable diseases, and the rising demand for quality medical care.

Speaking at the swearing-in ceremony, Mr. Akandoh reaffirmed the government’s commitment to implementing the Ghana Medical Trust Fund (MahamaCares), urging each agency to align their efforts with national health priorities. He tasked the Medical and Dental Council with ensuring ethical, competent medical services across the country and called on the NHIA to refine its benefit packages to enhance financing for chronic disease treatment.

The Pharmacy Council was charged with improving pharmaceutical distribution, tackling opioid misuse, and strengthening regulatory frameworks in collaboration with the private sector.

Meanwhile, the Ghana College of Nurses and Midwives has been urged to spearhead workforce reform by enhancing training and professional development, aimed at reducing health worker migration.

Mr. Akandoh emphasized the importance of collaboration among the agencies, urging board members to harmonize their efforts and prioritize patient needs, stating, “Irrespective of whatever we will do, the ultimate goal is the common Ghanaian.”

The newly appointed boards are expected to drive transformative health sector reforms, ensuring accessibility, quality, and sustainability in Ghana’s healthcare system.
