Where a prepayment system exist as in health insurance, quality of service provided is very important in sustaining such as scheme. In 2003, a National Health Insurance Scheme was introduced in Ghana.

One of the underlying principles of the National Scheme is ensuring that quality of health care provided to subscribers is not compromised. Thus the object of the study was to determine quality of service, from the user perspective, under the National Health Insurance scheme in Ghana. Two District Mutual Health Schemes were chosen for the study.

The findings of the study providesvaluable information to policymakers and questions one of the principles underlying the design of the scheme: quality of health care.
