A National Health Insurance Scheme (NHIS) building at Nkawie in the Atwima Nwabiagya District of the Ashanti Region was burgled Thursday, raising security concerns.

The building which is located closed to the Atwimawa Nwabiagya Police Command was said to have been attacked after officials of the scheme had closed from work.

XYZ News’ Ashanti Regional Correspondent Jonathan Ofori reports that a system unit which is used to register health insurance applicants was stolen.

The intruders broke into the burglarproof glass window at the back of the building, providing access into the general office where the computer part was stolen.

Officials at the Public Relations of the NHIS office were not ready for comments but Jonathan reports that a formal complain have been lodged at the Atwima Nwabiagya District Police Command.

“We have begun investigations into the incident. It is too early to disclose our findings to the public except to say that the only system unit which is used to print NHIS cards had been stolen, District Crime Officer who only gave his name as DSP Akotoga stated in an interview with XYZ News.

No arrest has since been made.
