The BHF is thrilled to introduce the newly launched website, ‘The Health Citizen‘, a dynamic and inclusive information platform that offers robust insights on National Health Insurance (NHI) and its potential impacts on all consumers of health services in South Africa, or in our words, the ‘Health Citizens’.In these times of major policy changes in health care, it is more important than ever that everyone in the health sector is informed, not just about the changes themselves, but about the reasoning behind them and their expected impacts. We view The Health Citizen as a bridge between complex health policies and everyday life, providing citizens with invaluable insights into the NHI and how it will shape their access, coverage, and overall healthcare experience.
The Health Citizen is your go-to-resource for understanding the role and future of medical schemes under NHI, including the latest updates on the NHI Bill.
We are committed to providing current, accurate, and reader-friendly interpretations of new health policies, as well as unpack the role and future of medical schemes under NHI, including the latest updates on the NHI Bill. We are equally eager to hear your perspectives as we all navigate the evolving health system.We invite you to visit https://thehealthcitizen.co.za/ and begin your journey towards empowered health decision-making.
