Abstract
The main objective of establishing the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) is to protect the poor and put health in the hands of the people. It also aims to provide health services for all by abolishing the "cash and carry" system in which patients are asked to pay before they are treated. This study was conducted to assess a new method of financing Health Care in Ghana, evaluation of Mutual Health Insurance Scheme in Adaklu Anyigbe. A questionnaire was designed using structured questions to collect primary data from health facilities and clients of the NHIS. Personal interviews were held to solicit views and comments from some respondents. The results show that the availability of adequate funds for health care services is very important for the survival of the health insurance scheme. Adequate funding for health care services will assist in meeting health care services and delivery requirements for health service facilities and clients in Ghana. Meeting Ghana's health requirements will require the adoption of effective policies and guiding principles that integrate the input and concerns of all stakeholders from the health care business.
