The Ghana Medical Trust Fund has made a second financial presentation to the Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital to support four additional patients under its ongoing pilot programme, reinforcing efforts to provide timely and life-saving healthcare support.
The beneficiaries, drawn from the Central, Northern and Greater Accra regions, are receiving treatment for critical conditions, including brain-related illnesses and cancer.
The intervention forms part of the Trust Fund’s broader objective of easing the financial burden on patients requiring specialised care.

An amount of GH₵282,958.90 was formally presented to the management of Korle-Bu Teaching Hospital to cover the cost of neurosurgical procedures and oncology treatment for the four patients.
With this latest disbursement, the Trust Fund has now sponsored a total of eight patients at Korle-Bu—comprising four neurosurgical cases and four oncology cases.

In all, a cumulative sum of GH₵620,660.42 has been paid to the hospital to support their treatment.
Officials say the initiative underscores the core purpose of the pilot phase: reaching patients in critical need at the right time while strengthening the healthcare system to serve all Ghanaians.

Beyond the financial figures, the support represents lives saved, families relieved, and dignity restored through access to essential medical care.
