Dear Hospital Build Stakeholder,
The Hospital Build South Africa conference heralded the beginning to advance hospital infrastructure and health services in South Africa. Over 100 delegates were in attendance with significant representation from the Ministery of Health, Ministry of Public Works, Premiers Office of Kwa-Zulu Natal, speaking at the two day conference.
 |
Dr Richard Friedland who was the opening speaker at the conference discussed the need to develop and optimise the healthcare infrastructure in South Africa and look into mobile healthcare service delivery as practised by developed countries. He also emphasised that Public Private Partnership is the only breakthrough the South African Healthcare Industry need to meet the crisis of our ailing healthcare sector. |
 |
Dr Thesiga Reddy also highlighted that government and stakeholders should endorse the National Health Insurance Plan to leverage against the backdrop of the nation’s failing healthcare in reshaping public healthcare services to ensure that hospitals provides equal access to quality healthcare for all |
