Health insurance is a social security system that guarantees the provision of needed health services to persons on the payment of token contributions at regular intervals.
The objective of the survey was to determine knowledge, practice and willingness of households in Nigerian Capital City to pay and participate in Community Health Insurance Scheme.
Materials and Methods: This descriptive and analytical cross-sectional study was carried out using the multistage cluster sampling technique to obtain data from 300 selected household heads or main financial decision makers.
The data was analyzed using EPI-INFO software package.
Statistical significance of p < 0.05 and confidence limit of 95% was used.
Results: The major findings showed that the level of awareness (13%) concerning Community Health Insurance (CHI) was found to be very low among the respondents.
The general principles of CHI were also poorly understood by the respondents.
Attitude to the programme was positive as many showed interest in participating and enrolling themselves (97.0%), some family members (96.3%) and entire family members (90.3%).
Borrowing money to settle medical bills in this study has occurred in 30% of instances.
Majority of respondents were willing to pay premiums ranging from N450 (96.6%) to N1200 (72.5%) for simple packages that do not include surgery and hospitalization.
Conclusions: The community members were willing to participate and enrol if the programme is brought to them.
There is a need to adequately subsidize the premiums that respondents were willing to pay in order to meet up with the cost of treatment.
