The Moroccan National Agency for Health Insurance (ANAM) is preparing to launch a Medical Assistance Regime (RAMED) aimed at providing health insurance to the destitute, said Chakib Tazi, ANAM director general. In an article in Thursday's (22 December) Al Bayane, Tazi said the plan will cover nearly six million Moroccans, or 20 per cent of the population, which, along with the mandatory health insurance plan for wage earners, will bring the overall number of the population benefiting from medical insurance to 50 per cent. RAMED, initially valued at MAD 1.7 billion, will be funded by the state, local communities and beneficiaries whose contributions remain unclear.
