Gauteng Health Department to pay over R300 million for medical negligence via SABCNewsOnline

Bloom says he welcomes the department’s shift towards mediation in an attempt to settle these cases as this will speed up cases and reduce expensive lawyers’ fees.

“I think it is very shameful that lawyers who are acting on court-ordered payments for negligence had to resort to attaching the Gauteng Health Department’s accounts. The department should just pay as normal within 30 days. But because they don’t, lawyers had to attach their accounts. And I think it’s got to stop.”
