Includes bibliographical references. Prepayments and risk pooling through social health insurance has been advocated by international development organizations. Social health insurance is seen as a mechanism that helps mobilize resources for health, pool risk, and provide more access to health care services for the poor. Hence Ghana implemented the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) to help promote access to health care services for Ghanaians. The study examined the influence of the NHIS on the behaviour of health care providers in their treatment of insured and uninsured clients. 2015-01-15T11:26:16Z 2015-01-15T11:26:16Z 2010 Master Thesis Masters MPH http://hdl.handle.net/11427/12217 eng application/pdf Health Economics Unit Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town
