Ghana Medical Association Urges Investment in Emergency Infrastructure Amid KATH Crisis

Don’t just query KATH – invest in emergency infrastructure, GMA tells government

The Ghana Medical Association (GMA) has warned that the recent congestion crisis at the Komfo Anokye Teaching Hospital (KATH) is not an isolated incident but a glaring symptom of systemic underfunding and inadequate emergency care infrastructure across the country. In a press statement issued on June 4, 2026, the GMA called for sustained investment in emergency medicine infrastructure and the urgent expansion of emergency care facilities at all levels of the health delivery system.
