NHF RESPONDING MORE TO THE NEEDS OF JAMAICANS The National Health Fund (NHF) has been responding more to the needs of the Jamaican population, says Minister of Health and Wellness, Dr. the Hon. Christopher Tufton. Addressing Wednesday’s (June 11) post-Cabinet press briefing at Jamaica House, he shared that prior to 2016, the NHF was issuing fewer than one million prescriptions each year. “Last year, NHF issued some three million prescriptions to Jamaicans. We have moved from 16 to 24 categories of illness. In other words, we have added three other areas of cancer-related illnesses, as well as other areas that are now covered under the NHF,” Dr. Tufton said.The National Health Fund (NHF) has been responding more to the needs of the Jamaican population, says Minister of Health and Wellness, Dr. the Hon.
