NHI: Doctors Dump SA

NHI: Doctors dump SA | Carte Blanche | M-Net

There’s a growing crisis in our health system. Doctors and other medical professionals are leaving the country in their hundreds. The reasons are varied and all too familiar: better pay and working conditions abroad, safety, and political stability. But increasingly, doctors are being driven away by government’s plan to introduce the National Health Insurance (NHI), a scheme many say is simply unworkable. In this story, we visit Ireland, a favoured destination for our departing doctors, and a country – despite being relatively wealthy – grappling with its own public health issues.

  1. Fun South African Fact: SA has three capital cities: Pretoria is the Executive Capital, Cape Town the Legislative Capital and Bloemfontein the judicial Capital.

  2. Fun South African Fact: South Africa is home to the world’s longest wine route: Route 62. It spans an impressive 850 kilometres and the excellent wineries along the way are a must-visit for lovers of fine wine! You can even enjoy the winelands on a day trip from Cape Town. Travel 40-min to an hour outside of the city centre to enjoy decadent wine tastings and even wander through some of the beautiful wine farms and estates! Suburbs like Durbanville and Constantia are even closer to the city centre and are also home to many exceptional wineries.
