Health minister Joe Phaahla’s announcement that government’s proposed National Health Insurance scheme will be implemented “incrementally”, should serve as renewed evidence that government is committed to the wrong ideas and policies at a foundational level. .
The NHI is not the appropriate vehicle for solving the many issues that afflict the public and private sectors. In his address to delegates at a virtual event hosted by Momentum Health Solutions the minister also stated that “medical schemes will continue to cover those aspects that NHI is not covering at the introductory level”. But administrators and members of medical schemes should not accept the premise that more state power, as the NHI would mean in practice, is the best vehicle for delivering quality care to citizens.
