A committee looked into claims of wrong medical charges at two major hospitals. These hospitals are the Greater Accra Regional Hospital Ridge and the Korle Bu Teaching Hospital.
The investigation focused on patients being charged too much for services. Some unethical practices were found by the committee.
A seven-member committee conducted this investigation. It has now given its findings to the Ministry of Health.
The committee is recommending that some staff members face disciplinary measures. This is based on the discovered unethical practices.
The Ministry of Health will review the report. Further actions will depend on this review.
This situation affects patient trust in public health facilities. It highlights the need for transparency in hospital billing.
