Introduction

According to Critical Illness Insurance Statistics, Critical illness insurance is a form of coverage that provides a one-time pay-out when the policyholder is diagnosed with specific severe medical conditions like cancer, heart attack, or stroke.

Unlike regular health insurance which covers medical expenses, critical illness insurance offers financial support for non-medical costs related to the illness, such as lost income or additional expenses not covered by standard insurance.

The lump-sum payment is given upon the diagnosis of a covered critical illness, offering flexibility in how the funds are used.

This type of insurance aims to ease financial burdens during a challenging period, allowing individuals to focus on recovery without the added stress of economic consequences.

It's essential to carefully review policy details, as coverage can vary in terms of conditions covered, exclusions, and other specifics.

This report reviews the trends in expenditure patterns in public financial management (PFM) in Nigeria since 2001, and assesses the impact thus far of the ongoing government reform efforts. The public expenditure management and financial accountability review (PEMFAR) covers areas that have been traditionally undertaken by separate Bank reports such as the public expenditure reviews (PER), the country financial accountability assessment (CFAA), and the country procurement assessment review (CPAR). This analysis covers fiscal policies and performance at both federal and state government levels. The PEMFAR is a consolidated diagnostic tool designed to enhance Bank, development partners' and member countries' knowledge of PFM arrangements and reform challenges. The core objective of the Nigeria PEMFAR is to advise the Government (federal and participating states) on how (i) to better focus and sequence its PFM, including the procurement reform agenda within a broader economic reform framework, and (ii) identify directions and instruments of restructuring its expenditure patterns on both macro and sectoral levels. The PEMFAR also aims to inform international development partners on how they could provide more efficient support for the PFM reforms in Nigeria by identifying the main bottlenecks within the existing reform process.
