Zone 5 Police is set to begin NHIS enrolment
OpenLife Nigeria reports that Zone 5 Police Command, comprising Edo and Delta States, has fixed March 15, 2021 for the commencement of NHIS enrolment.
According to a statement signed by DSP Tijani Momoh, Zonal Police Public Relations Officer of the Zone 5 Command, the exercise is in line with the directive of the Inspector General of Police, IGP Mohammed Adamu.
The statement reads:
“The Nigeria Police Force has commenced the 2nd phase of the nationwide registration and capturing of retired police officers in the ongoing enrolment of retired police officers on the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS).
“The exercise is scheduled to commence on 15th March, 2021. It is aimed at ensuring that no retired police officer (including his/her spouse), anywhere in the country, irrespective of rank on retirement, is left out from having full access to all NHIS services and benefits covered by the Police Health Maintenance Organization (Police-HMO) Code-073.
“The exercise shall be in three batches and will take place at the various Police Area Commands in the country. All retired police officers (each with a spouse), who were not captured during the 1st phase of the exercise, are therefore required to visit any Police Area Command closest to them (in their States of residence) with their Letter of Retirement and Retiree’s I.D Card.
“The registration/capturing exercise for Police retirees resident in Edo and Delta states which make up Zone 5 Police Command is scheduled to hold in the 1st batch as follows:
(Monday, 15th March, 2021 – Thursday, 18th March, 2021).
“Meanwhile, the Inspector-General of Police, IGP M.A Adamu, notes that the Force is passionate about the welfare of its personnel in retirement. He assures that the Police leadership will continue to do all within its powers, in collaboration with relevant State Actors and Institutions, to address all pending issues surrounding the general welfare of our esteemed senior citizens who undoubtedly dedicated their youthful days and energy to the service of the nation.
“The IGP further notes that the registration and services provided under this scheme is absolutely at no cost and without any form of deduction whatsoever from retirees’ monthly pension. He therefore enjoins all retired Police Officers who are yet to be captured on the Scheme, to take optimum advantage of the 2nd phase exercise which will avail them with affordable healthcare services in retirement.
