The Public Private Health forum met on Thursday to discuss the financial relationship between the private and public sectors and the legal regulations that govern it.

Ministerial Spokesperson Colleen Smart said, the forum focused on improving the way in which the private sector does business with the public healthcare sector, and how private expertise can add value to their services.

Smart added that Provincial Minister of Health Nomafrench Mbombo shared some insights on how the Western Cape government is creating a conducive environment for public and private partnerships. 

Smart said “Often the private sector is discouraged from doing business with the government or forming public-private relationship due to odd administrative processes. And this why it was so crucial to have the discussions with them today, in order to come up with innovative ways of service delivery to our clients.”
