The Ministry of Health and Medical Services is urging people to be aware of the fake Free Medical Insurance posts circulating on social media, which appears to be an attempt to mislead members of the public in Fiji.

The Ministry says they do not offer free medical insurance for people over 50 years as stated in the fake social media posts.

They say the Ministry of Health only disseminates information through their Ministry of Health and Medical Services social media platform and website.

They are working with the Department of Information and the Fiji Police Force CyberCrime Unit to ascertain the basis of these incorrect posts.
