National Health Insurance: Medical specialists and doctors threaten to flee overseas

Posted on Leave a comment
National Health Insurance: Medical specialists and doctors threaten to flee overseas The new National Health Insurance (NHI) that the ANC-regime wants to implement is facing fierce opposition from doctors and medical professionals in the Free State. These medics are currently threatening to go overseas, meanwhile, the Free State DA has also been involved in a fight with Montsent Tsiu, the MEC of Health in the province. The parties involved confirm that the NHI is going to become an unaffordable system that is doomed even before it is implemented. The doctors support the principle of health care for all but reckon that the NHI is not a feasible system. It is believed that if doctors are first harmed by being prohibited from opening private practices and patients are forced upon them whom they must pay attention within 24 hours, they will simply walk. According to reports from Network 24, Marietta Pittaway, DA MPW, accused Tsiu of sitting in the Free State Legislature for "prematurely" informing parliament that the Free State provincial government and the larger Free State community supported the NGO, while the process of public participation has barely begun. But Tsiu said she only sent letters of objection to the names of those who supported the NHI as a bill and those who opposed it. She acknowledged that she had informed parliament that the province's executive committee supports the proposed bill. Pittaway accused Tsiu of "undermining" and "disrupting" his public participation processes, which are yet to take place. Pittaway also said the DA had a complaint with National Health Minister Dr Zweli Mkhize tabled on this. Meanwhile, Dr Freek Bester, Bloemfontein specialist and former president of the Free State Bone of the South African Medical Association (Sama), said that Free State specialists and doctors had filed grievances and concerns in two bulky sets of documents at Sama and the South African Private Practitioners Forum. Bester says if the law becomes a reality, it's going to double Eskom's budget and could open the door to similar problems of mismanagement and corruption that currently exist with Eskom, Prasa and SAA. It could also mean that large sums of money, like what happens at other government entities, will be nationalized as healthcare. Bester says there are doctors who threaten to pack their bags if they are harmed and prescribed by the NHI. "This is because doctors do not want to be restrained and want to be prescribed and overthrown by a lot of state officials all the time." Bester also says the problem is that little detailed information is provided. "Doctors support the principle of healthcare for everyone, but reckon that the NHI will become an affordable system that is doomed even before it is implemented." Bester says the Free State doctors he spoke to do not think it will be "enforceable legislation". Pittaway believes Tsiu has undermined parliamentary processes by informing parliament about the Free State's sentiment on the bill, while Free State sessions are still barely started or finalized. According to Pittaway, Tsiu hampered the processes of public participation with her "irresponsible" and "politically motivated actions" by also handing out leaflets, which support the proposed legislation, at public meetings in the Free State. “The Free State Department of Health must play an independent role, but now everyone is in the blink of an eye. “It has blatantly undermined Parliament's role and its process of public participation, as prescribed by law. This is set out in the Lamosa decision in a court case on a similar case. " Tsiu's behaviour could bring legal challenges to the bill, Pittaway said. “The DA has an alternative Sizani Universal Health Plan, which can deliver quality health without crippling the economy. "The DA has submitted more than 87,000 submissions from doctors as well as the public to the relevant portfolio committee of Parliament and will ensure that everyone is looked at," Pittaway said.

New Health Plan poses huge risk to SA’s economy and would be disastrous if implemented – even far left FW de Klerk Foundation have their doubts!

Posted on Leave a comment

The ANC regime has South Africa’s people in a huge dilemma with its National Health Plan.

Foreign media reports that a government spokesman said the plan would be implemented gradually, but that would depend on the economic growth achieved.

Experts point out that the country will not show any significant growth in the next five years, with the massive unemployment still rising.

The plan is believed to be “rolled out” in phases as economic growth improves, but experts point out that nothing has been said about what will happen if the economy recedes further.

Opinionists believe this will mean that the tax assessment could increase dramatically, and ultimately the entire Plan will fail.

Even the far left FW de Klerk Foundation believes implementing the Health Plan will be yet another disaster for South Africa.

Die regering wil graag ʼn Nasionale Gesondheid-program daar stel sodat die hele bevolking van Suid Afrika, toegang tot gratis mediese sorg kan kry.  Die realiteit spreek egter boekdele.

'Terminally ill children left to die in pain in SA government hospitals' – ANC-regime has not yet implemented its policy on palliative care, affecting paediatric patients with terminal illnesses.

This is the assertion of paediatrician Dr Michelle Meiring, who said while the policy had been approved, there has been no budget to implement it. “These kids are suffering in pain today. We need to do something more urgently,” she said. Meiring is a senior lecturer in palliative medicine at the University of Cape Town,..

ANC regime se ondersoek na privaat gesondheidsorg kos die belastingbetalers reeds miljoene Rand

Die verkwisting van geld duur net voort en wek die indruk dat sulke ondersoeke ’n nuwe vorm van korrupsie is waar sekere mense hulleself verryk. Die Kompetisie Kommissie se ondersoek rondom Gesondheidsorg se ondersoek het die staat R196 miljoen gekos. Die vyf paneel lede is as volg vergoed: dr Cees Van Gent van Nederland het..

Tekort aan menslike bronne kelder ANC-regime se Gesondheidsplan

In ‘n verslag van die SA Health Review blyk dit dat die tekort aan menslike hulpbronne die ANC se droom van universele gesondheid dekking kelder. Die verslag toon dat veral die landelike areas ernstige tekorte het aan mediese beamptes. Syfers toon dat soveel as 106,000 poste reeds in 2010 vakant was vir 14 kliniese gesondheidsprofessies…
