BHCPF SIDE SESSION AT JAR 2026: A SUCCESSFUL CONVERSATION ON ADVANCING UNIVERSAL HEALTH COVERAGE!

The Basic Health Care Provision Fund (BHCPF) successfully convened a well-attended side session at the 2026 Nigeria Health Sector Joint Annual Review (JAR), bringing together key stakeholders across Nigeria's health sector for an engaging conversation on advancing Universal Health Coverage.

Held under the theme, “Learnings from Nigeria's Pro-Poor Programmes as a Means of Advancing Universal Health Coverage (UHC),” the session provided an important platform to examine implementation experiences, share lessons and explore opportunities for strengthening pro-poor health financing in Nigeria.

Through presentations and discussions involving the four BHCPF gateways – NHIA, NPHCDA, NEMSAS and NCDC – participants reflected on achievements, implementation challenges and opportunities for improving service delivery, financial protection and access to essential healthcare.

The session also featured a reviewer's perspective from the representative of the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, who provided concluding reflections and wrapped up the engagement, highlighting the importance of sustained collaboration, learning and translating programme evidence into meaningful results.

The impressive turnout and active participation of government representatives, development partners, civil society, private sector actors and other stakeholders underscored the importance of collective action in strengthening Nigeria's health system.

A key message emerged from the conversation: the true measure of health financing reform is its impact on the lives of the people it is designed to serve.

As Nigeria advances its health sector reform agenda, the BHCPF remains committed to evidence-driven implementation, accountability and equitable access to quality and affordable healthcare for all Nigerians.

From dialogue to action, from investment to impact – together, we advance UHC!
