Ch.10 Financial matters
Good morning, all,

Thank you for allowing my voice,

Though it is a noble cause, and we all deserve the right the healthcare in South Africa, my concern is.

1. Look at the other SOE, Eskom, Transnet, Post Office it is a shell of its former self, yes, we should take outside factors in consideration, however bad management, nepotism, corruption, and this "big board structure" (is it to hide their lack, or incompetency? What are they trying to hide)
2. Look at the private hospitals and look at the government hospitals, yes, one can argue there is capital, however these investors protect their capital, why can't the government be a little bit more concerned about us (or is that reserved for election year?)
3. Most Government facilities have the capacity (or had), it will take will power, a no-nonsense attitude to have it fixed.
4. Stop looking for cheap bail out, take responsibility and fixed it

There is nothing that this government cannot corrupt, cripple, bankrupt, and destroy - their track-record speaks for itself.
The ANC cannot be trusted with public funds.
This will just be another source of spending-cash for the ANC, and the people of South Africa will be even further impoverished.

Ch.2 Access to Healthcare services
The private sector of the health service has become totally profit driven and financially in-affordable. Medical aid companies in collaboration with doctors and hospitals need to keep prices high so thy can expand their financial empire into other money making ventures

Ch.8 Operational provisions
If the government bodies would put the emphasis on making government hospitals work efficiently and hygienically then that would be a great start to providing health care for all. Controls should be in place to avoid fraudulent use of the current system!

It should be optional to use private health care and the use of private clinics.

based on the track record of how government hospitals have been managed it would be madness to think that they can successfully take on such a massive project. I am all for providing care for those who need it but would like to see an independent party overseeing the spending of tax payers' money. NHI is idealistic and will only result in our existing doctors and nurses leaving

The NHI must not replace private medical aid, services or hospitals etc. It must exist separate and adjacent to it. Let private medical aid and a government services compete in a regulated way. This will let the existing services remain as is. While opening up private doctors, hospitals, etc supplement government services.
