NHI: One step closer to implementationThe National Health Insurance Bill (NHI) is one step closer to implementation. The NHI bill was first introduced to the National Assembly in August 2019. During his address to the house, the minister conceded the public health system required fixing. “Not all public hospitals have been run like Tembisa Hospital, you have your Steve Biko, Charlotte Maxeke, and Groote Schuur. To this day we do not know which health services the NHI will cover”.
