The Ghana Medical Association (GMA) has announced an increment in the cost of medical services rendered by some of its members effective September 1, 2019
This is contained in a letter the Association wrote to its members earlier this week.
Services such as autopsy reports, exhumation, permission cases, general medical reports for school, travel, employment, mortgage, police reports among others have been affected by the development.
Exhumation reports, for example, will cost you not less than GH¢10,000 whilst Police reports on rape will cost you GH¢300 and GH¢800.
The fees are to be paid directly to the individual doctor aside any other administrative charges that will be paid to the medical facility a patient seeks attention from.
The General Secretary of the Ghana Medical Association Dr. Justice Yankson in an interview on the Citi Breakfast Show explained that such fees are payments for the professional service of the medical practitioner.
