Abstract
The Nigerian government has previously implemented policies to achieve universal health coverage, however, only few are health-insured. In 2022, the President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria passed the bill for the National Health Insurance Act. As a result of this development and the ensuing target of providing health insurance to all Nigerians by 2030, efforts to combat the high prevalence of poverty caused by out-of-pocket medical expenses while engaging with State Health Insurance Agencies are now more feasible than ever. Health insurance is now required for all Nigerians and legal residents. This article thus aimed to outline strategies to ensure that the National Health Insurance Act contributes positively to the health and well-being of Nigerians.
