“The Patient Support Programme will initially be delivered through twenty-nine enlisted hospitals strategically distributed across the country to ensure equitable access for all Ghanaians,” she stated.

The selected facilities include major teaching hospitals such as Korle Bu Teaching Hospital, Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital, Tamale Teaching Hospital, Ho Teaching Hospital, Cape Coast Teaching Hospital, Sunyani Teaching Hospital, and the University of Ghana Medical Centre, among others.

To improve efficiency and transparency, the Trust Fund has introduced a new digital platform integrated with hospital management systems. The platform is expected to support patient registration, clinical auditing, and faster processing of claims.

In addition, trained patient navigators have been deployed across the participating hospitals to assist patients and their families throughout the treatment process, providing guidance and support during what can often be a stressful and overwhelming experience.
