The probe follows revelations by Black and Indian healthcare practitioners that they’re not treated the same as their white counterparts by medical aid schemes. The health workers also claim they’re being exploited and harassed.
The Council will now probe the claims levelled against medical aids. One of the aggrieved practitioners is Dr Senathi Fisha who has been a psychologist for more than two decades. Her practice collapsed following what she cites as bullying by medical aids. “I was shattered, I felt stupid for signing at all the intimidation and all the things they were saying. I kept finding myself thinking about my children, what if I am arrested? I was tired of being harassed by Bonitas and Gems, they were harassing me and stopped paying and saying they deducting money I owed. My life has never been the same it went from up there to underneath, from 10 to negative 20, it went backwards things are hard still.
What about the many Scheme members where Medical Aids reverse thousands of rands leaving them in huge debt and basically blacklisted? They don't negotiate with their members as well. Is this the law?
