Gauteng Health in financial meltdown
30 October 2017
I am greatly concerned that the Gauteng Health Department is in a financial meltdown that is severely affecting patient care because unpaid companies are ceasing goods and services.
Two hospitals are currently in crisis because of unpaid bills:
- Rahima Moosa Hospital is struggling without agency nurses because the company has not been paid;
- Services at the Thelle Mogoerane Hospital have been disrupted because the security company was not paid.
