Actor and politician, John Dumelo responded to the news of a significant increase in the cost of dialysis treatment at the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital.
A widely circulated image on social media revealed that the price for dialysis had surged from GHC380 to GHC765, marking a 101 percent increase.
This development triggered outrage on social media, with many expressing concerns about the affordability of this vital medical treatment, particularly for those who require dialysis three times a week.
In response to the news, John Dumelo took to Twitter, questioning why dialysis treatment isn’t included in the National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS). He believes that such an addition is both necessary and achievable.
Dialysis treatment should be included under the NHIS. It can be done. 🙏🏿
