Its duties include registration of the participating insurers, vetting of individual indemnity hospital insurance plans for certification of compliance status, enforcement of scheme rules, undertaking of publicity and consumer education programs, monitoring of scheme performance, information dissemination and compilation of statistics, as well as handling of enquiries and complaints, etc.
