Nigeria is once again on the roller caster of a new clinche
“2010” with health care reform as one of the major pivots of the vision. The tremendous rate our medical personnel’s (Doctor and Nurses) travels out of the country for greener pasture has caused
More harm to his country than good.
The percentage of death rate as a result of treatment by in experienced Doctor and Nurses are numerous. Our intelligent and future hopes were deformed by one disease or the other because of treatment by non-experts.
ODUTOLA, (1997) in his book demonstrated that “our hospitals have become mere consulting clinics”.
“Our health care system has collapsed”
“Our hospital are short everything”
What then is our hope and aim towards achieving the goal of vision 2010.
This motivated the researcher to identify the problems and prospects of financing Health care Delivery in Nigeria.
The research work is concerned with the problems and prospects of financing health care delivery programme in Nigeria. The level of service offered to the health system is very low.

They were promised to be paid, but was not effective some of them decided to travel out of country for better future.
Some hospitals requires refurbishment and other need certain amenities, but none was done, rather they were closed down and some becomes unfuctional Hospitals preemies are littered with broken down equipment and unopened create of new equipment with no place for installation. The patronage of the government health facilities is very low.
