Nkoranza (B/A), Sept. 20, GNA – Mr. James Adu-Bonnah, the acting Manager of Nkoranza District Health Insurance Scheme, has appealed to field workers of the Scheme to work hard to register more people.

Mr. Adu-Bonnah was addressing more than 100 field workers of the scheme at Nkoranza at their review meeting aimed at addressing the challenges that face the scheme.

He told the field workers to visit the people in their homes and to encourage them to patronize the scheme so the district could achieve its set target.
