A four-party public-private partnership that shifts wellness from an individual burden to an institutional guarantee — and from a cost centre to a revenue generator.
Each participating institution ring-fences a mandatory wellness allocation from its existing staff welfare budget — deposited into a dedicated, separately-managed College Wellness Fund account. No individual opt-in required. Administered through the existing Bursary Department infrastructure already in place for TISSF deductions.
TETFund matches the institutional allocation at 100%, capped at ₦50,000 per staff per year. The match phases down over five years — 100% in Years 1-3, 50% in Year 4, 25% in Year 5 — as IGR matures and the fund becomes self-sustaining. This is a matching fund partnership, not a grant.
Doktorconnect representatives certify that wellness services have been delivered before any fund disbursement. Dual verification with the Head of Institution for amounts above ₦5 million. Annual audits reported transparently to TETFund, integrated with existing TISSF monitoring frameworks.
Annual comprehensive wellness assessments — physical examination, key bloodwork, mental health screening, lifestyle review, and personalised wellness roadmap — delivered by the LifePro Certified Provider Network. Zone-based credentialing ensures quality and reach across all 271 institutions.
Screening results populate each staff member's Digital Health Passport. Gamified wellness challenges, health score tracking, streaks, and departmental leaderboards keep staff engaged between annual screenings. Telemedicine gateway provides 24/7 access to follow-up care.
From Year 1, institutions offer wellness services to surrounding communities — generating IGR that progressively replaces TETFund's matching contribution. By Year 6, the fund is fully self-sustaining through community wellness revenue and budget absorption. TETFund exits. The programme lives on permanently.
