The Ogun State government, on Monday, began the registration of residents for free surgical operations.

Speaking at the flag-off of the exercise at the State Hospital, Ijaye, Abeokuta, the Executive Secretary of the Ogun State Health Insurance Agency, Dr Afolabi Dosunmu, said the intervention was on the directive of Governor Dapo Abiodun to provide succour to the people at this difficult time.

A statement on Monday quoted Dosunmu as saying, “The modalities are very simple as long as you are a resident of the state; as long as you have one surgical need or the other, you are free to walk into any of our state or general hospitals and enroll on the insurance scheme.

“The doctors there will assess you if it is a case that is ready for surgery and once all other parameters have been concluded, we will get the surgery done”.

The Executive Secretary noted that surgery operations would start today (Tuesday) as there were a lot of cases that needed urgent attention.
