2025-07-26 15:38:07 +02:00 | J | No I do not | Ch.10 Financial matters | The current public health care is riddled with corruption and theft. Public Hospitals are beyond repair, health care staff are leaving, newly qualified doctors are not employed. How on earth is taking new hospitals on board going to help? Taxes go up up. The middle class cannot cope with another burden. |

2025-07-09 16:12:54 +02:00 | Deleen | No I do not | Ch.10 Financial matters | The Tax payers will have to pay more Taxes to fund it as the mayority in SA are unemployed and lives on SASSA grants. Currently all State Hospitals are in shambals and NHI will NEVER work in SA. |
2025-07-07 12:13:34 +02:00 | Dylan | No I do not | Ch.10 Financial matters | The bill lacks clarity on how the NHI will be funded. It refers broadly to taxes and reallocating existing budgets, but does not specify tax rates, sources, or timelines, leaving citizens and businesses in the dark about future financial obligations. Without clear funding plans, there's a real risk that the burden will fall heavily on the middle class and businesses through higher income tax, VAT, or payroll levies—potentially discouraging investment and job creation. The NHI proposes massive reforms without a detailed cost analysis. Independent studies estimate it will require hundreds of billions of rands, yet the bill does not include any phased budget breakdown or feasibility assessment. The bill suggests that private medical aid schemes may be limited to covering only services not offered under the NHI, but doesn’t define what those services will be. This ambiguity creates instability for healthcare professionals, private hospitals, and the broader medical industry. A centrally controlled fund of this magnitude—with no detailed oversight structure—raises serious corruption and governance risks, especially given South Africa’s recent public sector track record. |
2025-07-07 06:31:41 +02:00 | Gaynor | No I do not | Other | All of the above. The NHI will most likely be used as a money laundering vehicle by certain individuals, including those in Government, and adds more for them to steal. Then there is the biggest issue of quality healthcare and not the failure they currently offer as government hospitals. |
