Expert: Decisions about healthcare access in SA need to be made | News Article

The specific form of healthcare coverage that foreign nationals can obtain, must be decided, according to UCT's School of Public Health.

This follows a video showing Phophi Ramathuba, MEC for Health in Limpopo, chastising a Zimbabwean patient.

 

Ramathuba informed the patient on camera that patients from other countries are overtaxing medical resources.

 This has renewed attention on the nation's ailing healthcare system.
