Healthcare providers urge faster NHI registration amid payment delays and rising costs.
The National Health Insurance Providers Association (NHIPA), representing 48 healthcare providers, is urging the government to fast-track its registration, citing months-long delays by the Department of Labour despite meeting the 15-member legal threshold.
