The last step required to achieve level-A accreditation status under NHIF is for Arrow Web Hospital to secure an X-ray machine, baby incubator and ultrasound equipment. With each level of accreditation under NHIF, the amount of money the hospital is reimbursed per card-carrying patient per month increases. This equipment will also again allow the hospital to accept referrals from other areas, also increasing the amount of reimbursement they receive. With the receipt of level-B accreditation status, NHIF will soon list Arrow Web Hospital on their website and include the hospital in their marketing materials, so it is expected that more and more patients will seek treatment from them. Having this type of equipment on hand, will definitely be of great use to them.
