  Deaf people are really suffering in Ghana when it comes to access to quality health care due to communication barrier.
  
  They need sign language interpreters in the hospitals to facilitate their access to quality health care.
  
  With politics aside, on humanitarian grounds the government and Ghana Health Service management need to listen to GNAD.
  
  I really like the kind gesture of the government for registering the vulnerable including the deaf on NHIS. This is a plus on the part of the government but without Sign Language interpreters, the deaf cannot have equal access to quality health care.
