Free Primary Healthcare Rollout (Western Region): Ghana has launched the Free Primary Health Care initiative in Takoradi, selecting five districts—Ellembelle, Jomoro, Wassa East, Wassa Amenfi West and Wassa Amenfi Central—for the first phase, with plans to scale to 150 districts nationwide and reach all 251 by 2027. Children’s Hospital Plan (Korle Bu): Ga Mantse King Tackie Teiko Tsuru II says funding is secured to build a 500-bed children’s hospital at Korle Bu, with land already allocated and discussions focused on Ebola preparedness too. Health Workforce Mobility (Ghana–Jamaica): Ghana and Jamaica signed an agreement to deploy 400 Ghanaian nurses to Jamaica, aiming to plug hospital staffing gaps while easing Ghana’s own unemployment pressure among health workers. Hospital Bed Shortage Response (MTN Y’ello Care): MTN Ghana launched the 2026 “21 Days of Y’ello Care” campaign, targeting equitable access and preventive care, with a renewed focus on hospital bed shortages. Radiology Safety (AI Reporting Warning): The Ghana Association of Radiologists warns diagnostic centres against issuing AI-generated radiology reports without a licensed doctor’s authorisation, citing patient safety and legal risk. Clean Water Support (Republic Bank Boreholes): Republic Bank commissioned solar/electric mechanized boreholes in Pwalugu and Dingoni to improve access to clean water in underserved northern communities. Ebola Preparedness (Regional Alert): NCDC in Nigeria says the country is only about 59% ready for a potential Ebola outbreak as cases continue in Uganda and the DRC, highlighting border and surveillance gaps. Health & Public Service Reforms (HaPSNA): A high-level African meeting in Abidjan is pushing for stronger community health programmes through civil service systems, with Ghana among participating countries.
