The Comité Syndical de la Caisse Nationale d’Assurance Maladie du Mali (CNAMI) has taken up the fight against compulsory health insurance fraud. After several days’ work, the union presented the results of its awareness-raising mission, which took place in the towns of Sikasso, Ségou, Mopti and Kayes.
According to the Comité Syndical de la Caisse Nationale d’Assurance Maladie (CANAM) du Mali, the aim was to strengthen dialogue with the union base and raise awareness of the importance of rational prescribing and the fight against fraud. The initiative is unprecedented, according to the Caisse’s General Manager, and this national mobilization illustrates the union’s determination to play a crucial role in preservingcompulsory health insurance (AMO). Both parties agreed that to meet the challenge of AMO fraud, a strong alliance between General Management and the union is essential to clean up the sector and ensure the sustainability of compulsory health insurance. This was one of the main recommendations to come out of the awareness campaign that took place in four of the country’s major cities: Sikasso, Ségou, Mopti and Kayes.
