The National Coalition for Health Care Reform (NCHCR) is a partnership of Bahamian citizens who are committed to improving health care services in The Bahamas and to the establishment of a National Health Insurance (NHI) plan that is financially viable and sustainable for many years to come.

Recent Additions

June, 2008 A Compilation of Reports and Findings by the National Coalition for Health Care Reform. This Report was submitted to The Hon. Hubert A. Minnis, M.P., Minister of Health & Social Development on the 18th of June, 2008.

Members of the Coalition
The Bahamas Chamber of Commerce The Grand Bahama Chamber of Commerce National Congress of Trade Unions The Medical Association of the Bahamas The Bahamas Hotel Association The Bahamas Employers Confederation The Small Business Association of The Bahamas The Bahamas Hotel Employer's Association The Nassau Tourism & Development Board The Nassau Institute The Bahamas Dental Association The Bahamas Insurance Brokers Association The Bahamas Motor Dealers Association The Bahamas Manufacturers Agents and Wholesalers Association Doctors Hospital Bahamas General Insurance Association Grand Bahama Medical & Dental Association

Government has repeatedly expressed its desire to advance health care reform in full consultation with the Bahamian public, however consultation with our respective organizations to date has been extremely limited and one sided. We urge Government to take the time to engage in true, meaningful and transparent consultation with the NCHCR to discuss the many unanswered questions on NHI. For the sake of the well-being of our people proper consultation is essential. We must take the necessary time to get the plan right!

It is the hope of The National Coalition for Health Care Reform that all Bahamians from every walk of life become involved in the formulation of NHI given that its socio-economic impact can affect all the people of The Bahamas for generations to come.
