Editor,

I would like to express my gratitude about the new policies that the Ministry of Health (MoH) is set to introduce regarding,  the communal health insurance (Mutuelle de santé).

Generally, communal health insurance has played a big role in improving our health because it protects us from unexpected medical expenses when we fall sick.

With these new reforms wherever you are, one can access medical services.

people will now travel and conduct their business in various parts of the country without fear of having to go back to their home areas incase they fall sick.And the same for people who seek employment else where.

I call upon fellow citizens to realize that with such advantages, premiums had to increase, thus we shouldn’t look at the increment of the premiums alone but also embrace the advantages involved.

In the reforms, I was also happy to learn about the Health Insurance Council that I believe will help address any complaints the subscribers face.
