Universal health care is a system of organized health-care systems built around the principle of universal coverage for all members of society, combining mechanisms for health financing and service provision.
Is it acceptable that in South Africa we just accept a system where a substantial portion of the population does not have quality access to healthcare cover? If not what can be done?

ReplyDeleteIt is inhumane. We need to UNITE as a Country and get behind healthcare access 4 all. Kenako - The Time is Now. The journey to the Destination will be long but rewarding.
ReplyDeleteI agree that as a compassionate nation we should all contribute and ensure that we find a solution that works for South Africa. Focus and urgency should be our compassionate purpose.
ReplyDeleteThe priivate healthcare model in South Africa consist of not for profit medical schemes with Doctors, hospitals, pharmacists, administrators and managed care organisations all profiting from the medical scheme without taking any risk. Is this sustainable? I think not. An advanced HMO or Health Services Organisation that take risk and operate on a profit share basis may add the right mix to a possible debate around the private market.
ReplyDeleteThe Culturally Competent Healthcare (“CCH”) framework commits stakeholders to addressing diversity goals which supports a powerful social justice argument to provide all employees with equal access and opportunity to receive quality and efficient care. The CCH framework can serve South Africa well in seeking solutions to provide Universal Health Care to all the Citizens of South Africa
