2026-02-24 11:37:50 +02:00 | Steven | No I do not | Ch.2 Access to Healthcare services | I have no problem with Public Healthcare. I used to use it before I got a steady job. I just do not trust the ANC. The amount of corruption and mismanagement in all SOE's , the current Public Health Care system the Police and the justice system is shocking. Absolutely shocking, why would the public trust their money and their lives to criminals. There is a new scandal every week. Do you think we are insane ? |

2026-02-14 13:21:14 +02:00 | Gail | No I do not | Ch.8 Operational provisions | In corrupt government this is not feasible |
2026-02-12 10:01:42 +02:00 | Tertius | No I do not | Other | With the top medical research economists in South Africa finding it impractical and too difficult to implement in South Africa, we need to take note. It would be more important to ensure that the current national healthcare allocated funds get invested/spent wisely, limiting or eradicating corruption. |
2026-01-30 11:03:30 +02:00 | Eugene | No I do not | Ch.10 Financial matters | Corruption rampant is South Africa, money will be stolen and healthcare as we know it will not exist. |
2026-01-27 11:56:28 +02:00 | Gayle | No I do not | Ch.1 Purpose and Application | Please don't kill what remains of our health system. People are returning from the UK because of their NHI system and theirs is well established with a better base for contributing too it. It is not practical for SA to adopt it as we do not have a work force to support it. in addition you are taking our choice away and forcing us to use government operated hospitals which since the ANC has taken over has become a disgrace. Please don't make our doctors who are so few go overseas to avoid the war zone in our health system this will cause. Please don't try create a legacy which will fail and put the citizens in a worse off position medically which they are in now. In addition I wish you would pass a law which forces politicians to go to these public hospitals like you are trying to do for the people on the streets. You do not deserve better than us. I will take an educated guess that you will go overseas for better care and leave us to suffer. |

2026-01-21 10:47:27 +02:00 | Laura | No I do not | Ch.10 Financial matters | Business has already asked for consultation on this matter to find ways to achieve healthcare for all without compromising the current structures. Government needs to listen |

2026-01-14 07:50:49 +02:00 | Renier | No I do not | Ch.1 Purpose and Application | The government (ANC) has proved over the past 30 years that it cannot be trusted with the systems that we already have. They have mismanaged it and plundered what we had, look at the condition of state hospitals and the shortage of staff. Interns and community service doctors have to work 27 hour shifts regularly because there are not enough doctors. Now they want to expand this broken and plundered system with funds that don't exist, whilst in the process trying to gut the existing private healthcare system. It is completely unfeasible and ridiculous. Additionally, the idea of nationalised healthcare doesn't work, even in countries where they have funds to support it. The ANC wants yet another branch to centralise more power that they can then exploit to enrich themselves. |

2026-01-06 19:57:50 +02:00 | Tracy | No I do not | Ch.2 Access to Healthcare services | The NHI is marketed as a means for basic healthcare to all, but it will use the taxbase as funding thereby further limiting access to private healthcare which many South Africans already cannot afford. 2% of the population very simply cannot afford to fund 98% of the population with triple inflation figures going into 2026. |

2025-12-28 22:46:14 +02:00 | Juan | No I do not | Ch.10 Financial matters | No, I do not support the proposed National Health Insurance (NHI) Bill. While universal healthcare access is a worthy goal, this Bill is unaffordable, with no clear sustainable funding beyond massive tax increases that South Africa cannot bear amid low growth and high unemployment. It centralises vast power in a single fund vulnerable to corruption and mismanagement, ignores public sector failures (understaffing, infrastructure decay), risks driving doctors abroad, and effectively destroys private medical schemes—removing choice for millions. Fix the public system first instead of this reckless overhaul. |

2025-12-20 19:35:09 +02:00 | Jaco | No I do not | Ch.10 Financial matters | I strongly oppose the implementation of the National Health Insurance (NHI) Bill.While the goal of universal access to quality healthcare is commendable and aligns with constitutional imperatives, the proposed NHI system, as currently structured, is financially unfeasible given South Africa's constrained fiscal environment and competing national priorities.South Africa already provides public healthcare services to the majority of citizens, yet this sector suffers from severe mismanagement, infrastructure decay, staffing shortages, and widespread corruption. Entrusting a vastly larger, centralised fund to the same governance structures risks amplifying these issues on an unprecedented scale, potentially leading to further resource misallocation and diminished service quality.Citizens should retain freedom of choice in selecting healthcare providers and maintaining control over their personal health decisions. The private sector currently delivers efficient, high-quality care and should be leveraged as a partner rather than constrained.Government must first demonstrate effective stewardship by urgently reforming and strengthening the existing public healthcare system—addressing corruption, improving management, and ensuring reliable service delivery—before contemplating a comprehensive overhaul like NHI. Only then can public trust be rebuilt to support broader reforms that genuinely benefit all South Africans. |
2025-12-12 15:01:50 +02:00 | Jennifer | No I do not | Other | The whole bill is to create yet another way to fleece taxpayers and create a huge pot of money to be stolen by those in power. I do not consent. |

2025-12-10 21:19:16 +02:00 | Johannes | No I do not | Ch.2 Access to Healthcare services | The country will fall into another corruption scheme that will be looted, and nobody will receive any Health Care. The government fails at everything besides Tax collection. So a hard no support. |
2025-12-10 16:59:42 +02:00 | Pieter | No I do not | Ch.1 Purpose and Application | In a free society people must be allowed to choose their own medical service providers. The state should never be allowed to stand between the public and the health care industry, and while healthcare must be regulated to ensure public safety, free market economics must remain sacrosanct. Anything less is to allow this government to further its communist agenda which will have no other outcome than the utter economic destruction of South Africa. The state already offers free healthcare for all. The problem is that they have destroyed service delivery through corruption and incompetence. Until they state fixes the existing health care system the NHI cannot be anything other than performative politics or a cynical money grab. |
2025-12-10 08:59:35 +02:00 | Dirk | No I do not | Ch.3 Establishment, Functions and Powers of the NHI | It will destroy healthcare in South Africa |
2025-12-09 19:04:34 +02:00 | Kobus | No I do not | Ch.10 Financial matters | You cant grasp the idea that nothing is for free. One of the dumbest ideas you came up with. Who is goiing to freed the enormous bill? You amaze me more and more with your stupid ideas! It keeps on coming |
2025-12-04 19:38:10 +02:00 | Fernando | No I do not | Ch.10 Financial matters | This current government will destroy the current Medical Aid Scheme |
