ANC slams media reports over NHI

By Mandisi Tyulu

The African National Congress has described debates in the media over the National Health Insurance System as ill-informed and highly speculative.

The ANC’s Zweli Mkhize says the debates are coming from a few individuals from specific sectors of the private sector, who have vested interests in maintaining the status quo in which the majority of people continue to struggle in accessing quality health care.

Mkhize says the work of the National Task Team on the NHIS will be formally released to the public through appropriate channels when it is complete.
