Structure/ Levels of Health Care Delivery in Nigeria
The Nigerian healthcare system is organized into primary, secondary and tertiary healthcare levels.
The Local Government Areas (LGAs) are responsible for primary healthcare,
The State Governments are responsible for providing secondary care while
The Federal Government is responsible for policy development, regulation, overall stewardship and
providing tertiary care.
The LGA level is the least funded and organized level of government and therefore has not been able to
properly finance and organize primary healthcare, creating a very weak base for the healthcare system.
Departments/Units of federal ministry of Health
The federal
ministry of health
has
• Health Planning, Research & Statistics, Public Health,
Family Health, Hospital Services, Food and Drug
Services, Information and communication technology,

Bringing primary health care under one roof
Primary Health Care Under One Roof (PHCUOR) is a policy to reduce
fragmentation in the delivery of Primary Health Care (PHC) services
which involves the integration of all PHC services under one authority.
Fragmentation has been identified as the most significant problem
facing PHC services, and significantly affects utilization rates and
health indices.
The policy was approved by the National Council of Health in 2011
and has since been implemented in at least 23 states in Nigeria.
Key elements of the Primary Health Care Under One
Roof policy
Integration of all PHC services delivered under one authority
A single management body with adequate capacity to control services and resources, especially human
and financial resources
Decentralized authority, responsibility and accountability
The three ones principle: one management, one plan and one monitoring and evaluation system
