The enrollment exercise was officially flagged off at the Palace of the District Head of Ikara, Ikara Local Government Area.

Speaking during the flag-off, the Director-General of KADCHMA, Mallam Abubakar Hassan, said the initiative was designed to expand access to affordable and quality healthcare for women and children, particularly vulnerable families at the grassroots.

He further explained that the partnership with the Zazzau Emirate Council and Advantage Health Africa( AHA) demonstrates the importance of community-based mobilisation and traditional institutions in ensuring that more residents are captured under the health Contributory scheme.

The DG urged eligible women and parents of children under five to take advantage of the enrollment exercise, noting that health scheme provides families with financial protection against the burden of out-of-pocket healthcare expenses.

Responding, the representative of the Emir of Zazzau, the Yariman Zazzau, commended KADCHMA, the Zazzau Emirate Council and Advantage Health Africa (AHA) for the initiative and for choosing Ikara as the location for flagging off the exercise.

The exercise is expected to reach eligible beneficiaries across all 11 Local Government Areas under the Zazzau Emirate, further strengthening Kaduna State's efforts towards Universal Health Coverage.

KADCHMA Launches Grassroots Health Insurance Campaign Across 11 LGAs
The Kaduna State Contributory Health Management Authority (KADCHMA) has commenced a strategic engagement to develop a coordinated grassroots health insurance awareness and mobilisation campaign across the 11 Local Government Areas under the Zazzau Emirate.

The initiative, supported by EngenderHealth, Clinton Health Access Initiative (CHAI) and Advantage Health Africa (AHA), seeks to strengthen community awareness and increase enrollment into the Kaduna State Contributory Health Scheme (KSCHS), particularly among people in the informal sector.

The strategic session, held at the Emir of Zazzau’s Palace in Zaria City, also featured the presentation of a live dashboard to His Royal Highness, the Emir of Zazzau, Ambassador Ahmad Nuhu Bamalli to mornitortor all health related programs in the state.

Speaking at the engagement, the Director-General of KADCHMA, Mallam Abubakar Hassan, described the initiative as a major step towards achieving Universal Health Coverage in Kaduna State.
He said the involvement of the traditional institution would enable the Authority to reach communities more effectively, given the influence, trust and extensive grassroots structures of traditional leaders.

“To the best of our knowledge, this is the first initiative of its kind in Nigeria where a State Health Insurance Agency is developing a coordinated grassroots health insurance mobilisation campaign anchored on the traditional institution across an entire Emirate.”

Mallam Hassan said the initiative provides an opportunity to develop a model that can be documented, evaluated and potentially replicated across Kaduna State and beyond.
He noted that traditional institutions have structures extending from the Emirate Council to District Heads, Village Heads and community leaders, making them critical partners in driving health insurance enrollment at the grassroots.

The DG further stressed that expanding coverage among the informal sector remains essential to reducing catastrophic out-of-pocket healthcare spending, particularly among farmers, traders, artisans, small business owners and transport workers.

KADCHMA, EngenderHealth Lead Grassroots Health Insurance Mobilisation Across Zazzau Emirate

The Kaduna State Contributory Health Management Authority (KADCHMA), with support from EngenderHealth, has commenced a two-day strategic engagement to develop a coordinated grassroots sensitization and mobilisation strategy for health insurance across the 11 Local Government Areas under the Zazzau Emirate.

Speaking at the engagement, the Director-General of KADCHMA, Mallam Abubakar Hassan, described the initiative as a major milestone towards achieving Universal Health Coverage in Kaduna State.

He noted that the initiative is designed to leverage the traditional institution, from the Emirate Council to District, Village and Community leadership, to take the message and benefits of health insurance directly to households, particularly those in the informal sector.

The DG emphasised that the campaign will focus on clear messages, measurable enrolment targets, defined responsibilities and effective tracking mechanisms to increase enrolment and renewals across the 11 LGAs.

He expressed appreciation to His Royal Highness, the Emir of Zazzau, the Zazzau Emirate Council and EngenderHealth for their support and commitment to advancing health insurance coverage.

“Our ultimate objective is clear: to ensure that more families are protected from financial hardship arising from healthcare costs and that no resident is denied access to needed healthcare simply because they cannot afford to pay at the point of service.”
