Health insurance agents go to school
on the new currency
Juaso (Ash), July 19, Ghanadot/GNA - The Asante-Akim South
District Mutual Health Insurance office has organized a
day's workshop for its collectors in the district on the new
Ghana cedi.
More than 100 participants attended the workshop, which was
aimed at sensitising participants on how to use the
conversion chart to facilitate smooth transactions between
the agents and clients.
Mr Owusu Kodua, District Scheme Manager, said collection
agents played a crucial role in the sustenance of the scheme
hence it was imperative to keep them abreast with such
developments as the new currency.
He expressed the hope that the sensitisation would help
eradicate misunderstanding between agents and clients,
especially during the transitional period when both
currencies would be in circulation.
Mr Kodua implored the participants to be courteous to their
clients even in the event of a misunderstanding over the
currency in order not to scare people away from the scheme.
Mr Yiadom Boakye Manu, Claims Manager, who took the
participants through the conversion chart, reminded them
that both currencies were legal tender until the end of the
year.
