NHIA denies allegations of ongoing recruitment exercises

The National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA) has dismissed allegations of recent or ongoing recruitment exercises, stressing that all hiring activities were concluded in October 2024.

In a press statement issued on Monday, the Chief Executive of the NHIA, Dr. Da-Costa Aboagye, addressed the rumours, emphasizing the authority’s commitment to transparency and due process in its recruitment efforts.

“We wish to categorically refute the claims circulating about recent or ongoing recruitment activities.”

“All our recruitment processes were finalized in October 2024, conducted in strict adherence to the law, regulations, and best practices. We are committed to upholding transparency, fairness, and meritocracy,” Dr. Aboagye stated.

The NHIA also clarified that the appointment and confirmation of director-level positions fall under the jurisdiction of the Public Services Commission, not the Authority.

The NHIA’s role in such appointments is limited to communicating outcomes after receiving official reports.

“The authority has no involvement in the selection process for director-level appointments. We urge the public to disregard false claims or threats regarding last-minute recruitments,” Dr. Aboagye added.

The NHIA reassured the public of its dedication to integrity and professionalism in all operations and encouraged individuals with questions or concerns to reach out through official communication channels for clarification.

The announcement comes amid growing concerns about fraudulent recruitment schemes targeting job seekers.
