Kasali reassured beneficiaries that the scheme was structured to remove financial barriers to healthcare access.
He explained that residents enrolled under the programme would not need to worry about deductibles or additional out-of-pocket payments for covered healthcare services.
According to him, the initiative reflects the Lagos State Government’s commitment to improving public healthcare delivery and ensuring wider health coverage for residents.
Speakers at the programme also highlighted the significance of EKOSHA in supporting disadvantaged members of society.
They noted that access to quality healthcare should not be dependent on financial status and emphasised the need for broader community participation in the scheme.
