GUEST – KC Makhubele – Spokesperson for South African Health Professionals Collaboration (SAHPC)
Doctors and medical professionals have taken aim at President Cyril Ramaphosa as he is expected to sign the controversial National Health Insurance (NHI) Bill into law this week, saying the legislation in its current form will limit instead of improve healthcare for South Africans.
The South African Health Professionals Collaboration (SAHPC), which represents more than 25 000 dedicated private and public sector healthcare workers, said its disappointment at the announcement stems from the "potential consequences the unworkable bill may inflict on the healthcare landscape."
