Government Policy: Health Insurance is Now Mandatory in Lagos
Large Call to Action Headline
The Governor Babajide Sanwo-Olu has signed an Executive Order (NO. EO/BOS/01 OF 2024) making health insurance mandatory for all residents and workers in Lagos State.
This directive aligns with the National Health Insurance Act of 2022. This promotes universal health coverage across Nigeria.
The policy ensures that every resident contributes according to their ability while gaining financial protection when healthcare is needed.
According to the Governor, universal health coverage can only be achieved when residents participate in a shared health insurance pool.
This initiative is implemented through the Lagos State Health Management Agency (LASHMA) via the ILERA EKO Health Insurance Scheme.
