The Cross River State office of the National Health Insurance Authority, NHIA, has awarded prizes of outstanding performance to two of its staff, Mrs. Moffi Glory Agbo, and Ms Odey Anita Ogeyi.
The awards were given to the best Frontline Desk and Best Outsourced Service Staff during the agency, 2023 Customer Service Week.
Speaking at the ceremony the NHIA State Coordinator, Mr. Stanley Effah emphasized the importance of enrollee’s satisfaction as the bedrock to the existence of NHIA.
Mr Effah spoke about the collaborative tendency of team service customer satisfaction and loyalty.
He applauded the commitment of all staff of Cross River State NHIA office; particularly the outsourced service staff who are not currently covered under the NHIA programmes.
According to Mr. Effah, “the award for the Best Outsourced Staff was also inclusive of a reward of benefit of social health insurance enrollment, under the individual category plan of N45,00 in the Group Individual & Family Social Health Insurance Programme of NHIA called GIFSHIP; which would cover the recipient of the award and her two biological children.”
Describing the awardee as the best-outsourced staff and a cleaner, Mr. Effah said: “Ms. Odey Anita Ogeyi is the epitome of a hard-working mother who deserves to be appreciated and rewarded by the CRS NHIA office.”
” In unequivocal terms, she is indispensable, salient and collaborative by her role with the mop stick in the provision of quality service to our customers or enrollees which has aptly reflected on the 2023 customer service theme “Team Service,” Mr. Effah said.

In her response, Ms Odey Anita Ogeyi who won Best Outsourced Service CRS NHIA staff, said she wasn’t expecting the award.
