The first 100 stakeholders participating in the delivery of the National Health Insurance Project (Dhamani) have now been onboarded and registered on the Dhamani platform underpinning the implementation of the compulsory health insurance programme in the Sultanate of Oman.
It marks the successful completion of a key milestone ahead of the planned roll-out of the Dhamani project – an initiative spearheaded by the Capital Market Authority (CMA) with the support of various government agencies.
Capital Market Authority regulates and supervises the insurance sector in the Sultanate of Oman which consists of General and Takaful insurance companies, reinsurance companies, insurance brokers, insurance agents, the Oman Insurance Society and others.
“With the initiation of the onboarding and registration process, we have now completed Phase 1A of the Dhamani Health Insurance ExchangePlatform project,” says Dr. Mohamed Ghazaly, Medical Insurance Expert – Capital Market Authority.
Furthermore, to ensure the equitable and sustainable operation of the scheme, the CMA is currently doing the groundwork to facilitate a scientific costing and pricing study to help standardize the pricing of services.
