In a bid to improve maternal health in Nigeria, the Rotary Club of Lagos has sponsored the Ilera Eko HMO annual plan for 100 pregnant women.
This initiative aims to reduce maternal and infant mortality rates in Lagos State by providing access to comprehensive healthcare services.
According to Adetunji Lamidi, President of the Rotary Club of Lagos, “We are proud to support the health and well-being of these women and their families.
“Our club is dedicated to making a positive impact in our community, and this initiative is a testament to our commitment to improving maternal health.”
The Ilera Eko HMO annual plan is part of the Lagos State Health Insurance Scheme, which aims to provide affordable and quality healthcare services to residents of Lagos State.
The scheme has already covered over 923,000 Lagos residents, with a goal of reaching every member of the target demographic [5).
The Rotary Club of Lagos has partnered with the Lagos State Health Management Board to implement this initiative, which will have a direct impact on the lives of the beneficiaries and their families.
By providing access to comprehensive healthcare services, the club aims to promote healthy outcomes for mothers and babies, and ultimately reduce maternal and infant mortality rates in Lagos State.
