THE BUDGET THAT IS BEING PUT ASIDE FOR THIS INSURANCE |
HEALTH CARE WORKER ATTENDING TO PATIENT. |
NHI is intended to ensure that all South African citizens and legal residents will benefit from health care financing on an equitable and sustainable basis. NHI will provide coverage to the whole population and minimise the burden carried by individuals of paying directly out of pocket for health care services. The World Health Organisation is in full support of this project.
All I want to see is great service delivery in hospitals , people that could go to private facilities now being able to go , better and effective medicines for patients and fair and equal treatment for all.
There is a norm in public hospitals of nurses not treating patients with the respect they need and not helping them in time . In one African country , health care workers scare pregnant patients http://www.africanews.com the treatment that patients get shouldn't differ because of institutions , or rather yet patients should be taken seriously attended to and treated like high priority regardless of whether they are in a private or public hospital.
This health insurance will definately help, because I for one don't have a medical aid scheme and I hope it will come handy to us , what are the requirments?
ReplyDeleteThis NHI will most definately change peoples lives and I think it is a good idea, bigups
ReplyDeleteI just appreciate that it accommodates , all SA citizens and legal residents . Thato all the requirements are an ID , proof of residence and income.
ReplyDeletethe poor will surely benefit from this venture by the government. so my question is where is this money coming from..the taxpayer or ''the rich people''?
ReplyDeleteRich people pay tax and medium class and all the others. So its taxpayers and government.
ReplyDeleteWow at least the poor will also get good service,finally the gorvenment has come to its senses,its a great idea!
ReplyDeleteI believe that this initiative by our government is a winning one! The South Africans at grass root level will surely benefit greatly from this project, thumbs up to my government - but there's still much to be done in other areas of our country - rural development is one of them!
ReplyDeleteah great it is nice to see the government doing something for the needy ,great innitiative .
ReplyDeletebut than again what about those that have medical aid? surely they are not too eager about the whole idea.
ReplyDeleteEager or not, we should instill a mindset of being happy for others and not focusind on ourselves alone.
