It also clarified the roles of enrollment officers and stakeholders, while addressing potential challenges that may arise in the field. 


Speaking at the event, the ASHIA Managing Director and CEO, Dr. Simeon Onyemaechi, emphasized the need for professionalism, empathy, and strict adherence to ethical standards,  reminding officers that a valid National Identification Number (NIN) is mandatory for all enrollees. 


The training underscores ASHIA’s commitment to delivering accessible, stigma-free healthcare services to vulnerable populations across Anambra State.
