How to Calculate NHIMA (2025)

  1. Calculate your gross income. This is the sum of your basic salary and any allowances you receive. Allowances can include commissions, bonuses, overtime, and other emoluments.
  2. Calculate your allowances. This includes any additional income you receive on top of your basic salary, such as commissions, bonuses, overtime, and other emoluments.
  3. Calculate NHIMA. This is a mandatory contribution to the National Health Insurance Management Authority and is calculated as 1% of your gross earnings for both employer and employee contributions.
  4. Subtract the NHIMA contribution from your gross income. This gives you the amount of income after the NHIMA deduction.
  5. Take note of your income after the NHIMA deduction. This is the amount of income that is subject to further deductions or contributions.
  6. Calculate other statutory contributions if applicable. These could include NAPSA, Workers Compensation, etc. Each of these contributions has its own calculation rules and rates.
