In pre-colonial Ghana and other African countries, infectious diseases were the main cause of high mortality rates. The list of hospitals built by the Colonial masters in Ghana in this blog post is about to explicitly explain the role of the modern health sector in saving lives, read on.
However, the modern history of health by the Colonial master in Ghana was a game-changer, which was drastically influenced by international stakeholders such as Christian missionaries, European colonists, the World Bank, and the International Monetary Fund.
Furthermore, the democratic shift in Ghana’s system of governance spurred healthcare reformations in an attempt to tackle the presence of infectious and non-communicable diseases. This eventually resulted in the establishment of the National Health insurance Scheme in place today.
