The package of benefits for the NHIP is very generous and comprehensive. It includes:
- All essential medical services, most of which are provided by the new health care facilities managed by Interhealth Canada on Grand Turk and Provo
- Access to the primary care clinics which the government is upgrading and will continue to manage on the Outer Islands
- Government's continued provision of public health services directly such as immunizations and wellness programs
Benefits will be structured on social principles of equal access to comprehensive health care services for all residents. Unlike private insurance there will be no exclusions or waiting periods for pre-existing conditions; and no deductibles or co-insurance.
