Ch.2 Access to Healthcare services
The Government cannot even fix roads and protect us as the state is corrupt . If you go to a state hospital you go there to be buried and not to get helped and the help you might get is very very poor . To hand the NHI bill to them is just more money to use for their own pockets and not to serve the public of south africe .

I strongly oppose the proposed National Health Insurance (NHI) Bill. I do not believe that handing control of healthcare funding to a single, state-managed fund is in the best interests of South Africans. Government has repeatedly demonstrated serious problems with corruption, financial mismanagement, poor administration and the deterioration of essential public services. Creating another enormous state-controlled fund does not address these underlying failures and risks placing an even greater financial burden on taxpayers.

I am also strongly opposed to any system that could reduce my freedom to choose how and where I receive healthcare or limit the role of private medical schemes and private healthcare. South Africans who work and pay for private healthcare should not be forced into a system they do not want or trust. The priority should be fixing, properly funding and effectively managing the existing public healthcare system, while preserving the right of individuals to choose and pay for private healthcare. For these reasons, I do not support the NHI Bill and believe it should not be implemented in its current form.

I do not support it because it is a very expensive and and non productive way to provide healthcare. The governent should not have so much power, and showed that it can not run hospitals and clinics effectively.

Clearly this will allow more theft, mal administration and corruption without improving health services.
I have a medical scheme which was connected to my severage package and will loose all my benefits from this deal which was negotiated 25 years ago.
What will happen to my own choice of GP and Specialist whom I have been seeing over the last 25 years?

Free or virtually health care has been available for everyone in South Africa for at least 50 years. Under the ANC the hospitals and standards have plummeted and going to a hospital has become a dangerous situation. Baragwanath Hospital used to be one of the BEST in the world. How the hospitals and clinics are now run is an absolute disgrace. We don't need 'another government institution'. Fix what we have. Government must not have more funds under their control to mismanage and squander.

Ch.8 Operational provisions
Like most other government run facilities it will not be managed properly, money will be misappropriation and the health care facilities and services will remain poor. This is why the current government healthcare system is in such a shocking state, all the NHS is, is another hole for corrupt officials and tendonairs to steal money.

Ons is ver van hospitaal en vra better medikasie by afgeleë klinieke soos Badplaas, hier is geen privaat apteek om medikasie te koop as kliniek nie het nie. Nie al die inwoners het vervoer nie en kliniek het meeste van die tyd nie al die voorgeskrewe medikasie nie. Dan sê hulle kom Maandag terug maar jy is nog steeds nie verseker dat daar medikasie sal wees nie.

What I would propose is that government initiate their NHI but initially it be limited to ALL government employees, their families and the indigent for a period of TEN YEARS and all those "members" be restricted to use NHI services only. Thereafter if having demonstrated its capabilities of proficiency it is successful it can then be considered for further roll out incorporating private medical aid/medical practice.
In short let our government ministers, deputies ------- lead by example by demonstrating their commitment and faith in their NHI!

The healthcare system as it was collapsed due to mismanagement and theft. The new NHI will collapse before it is fully implemented due to the same issue. No discipline will bring about more misery to the people. Appoint people with integrity, dignity and honesty who can do the job.

All issues addressed above are valid. There used to be a well functioning healthcare system for those who could not afford the financial burden of private health care. This system can and should be expanded if necessary but in a free democratic and regulated, to curb corruption and monopolies, free market economy the need for this NHI will diminish.

Whilst I do support the notion of National Health insurance and medical security for everyone, I do not support its current form and to me it looks like a channel for mass scale corruption. I do not support our current government to make this work and believe the nation will suffer and our rights diminished and we will have a health crises. I also believe that people should have the freedom to choose of they want private health insurance. What they should do instead is sort out the existing hospitals and get them to function efficiently and remove the existing corruption, this is an excellent place to start delivering healthcare.
