When the signing of the Health Compact was postponed, organisations that refused to sign thought it was to discuss the content. It was not.

At least one business organisation and two medical organisations will still not sign the Presidential Health Compact in Pretoria on Thursday because they are still expected to sign the same document that refers to NHI 25 times.

“The draft of the Compact that was shared with Busa promotes the NHI in its current form as the foundation underpinning healthcare reform. Busa does not agree with this, given the serious differences between us and government about the appropriateness of the NHI Act, let alone its feasibility as a legislative instrument to underpin universal health coverage.”

“While we share government’s commitment to universal health care, we believe that the NHI, in its current form, may not adequately address the complexities of our health system and could inadvertently lead to unintended consequences that compromise both the public and private healthcare sectors.
