2018 Budget Review
Budget Review 2018 Naational Treasury Republic of South Africa 21 February 2018 ISBN: 978-0-621-46020-9 RP: 03/2018 The Budget Review is compiled using the latest available information from departmental and other sources. Some of this information is unaudited or subject to revision. To obtain additional copies of this document, please contact: Communications Directorate National Treasury Private Bag X115 Pretoria 0001 South Africa Tel: +27 12 315 5944 Fax: +27 12 407 9055 The document is also available on the internet at: www.treasury.gov.za. ii iii iii iv iv v v vi Foreword The 2018 Budget arrives at a moment of opportunity for South Africa. A renewed sense of optimism has provided a much-needed boost to confidence and investment. The economic outlook has improved. And government has expressed a new resolve to strengthen policy coordination. Yet this positive turn of events should not blind us to the enormous economic and fiscal challenges facing our country. Economic growth is far too low to reduce alarmingly high unemployment and inequality. Revenue collection, on which government depends to fund social and economic spending programmes, will fall short of projections by R48.2 billion in 2017/18. The finances of several state- owned companies are in a precarious state. The 2017 Medium Term Budget Policy Statement (MTBPS) pointed out that extraordinary measures would be needed to stabilise the public finances. Without such measures, we would only delay the debt reckoning, and a growing share of spending would be absorbed by interest payments. The 2018 Budget proposals address these concerns with resolve. -
The Perceptions of General Practitioners on National Health Insurance in Chris Hani District, Eastern Cape, South Africa
South African Family Practice 2019; 61(3):102–108 https://doi.org/10.1080/20786190.2019.1596665 S Afr Fam Pract ISSN 2078-6190 EISSN 2078-6204 Open Access article distributed under the terms of the © 2019 The Authors Creative Commons License [CC BY-NC 4.0] http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0 RESEARCH The perceptions of general practitioners on National Health Insurance in Chris Hani district, Eastern Cape, South Africa Mthetheleli Mbongeni Gaqavu and Robert Mash* Division of Family Medicine and Primary Care, Stellenbosch University, South Africa *Corresponding author, email: [email protected] Background: National Health Insurance (NHI) intends to provide universal health coverage to all South Africans, with equity and quality as its tenets. The participation of private general practitioners (GPs) in NHI is essential. The aim was to explore perceptions of GPs on NHI in Chris Hani district, Eastern Cape, South Africa. Methods: A descriptive phenomenological qualitative study using semi-structured individual interviews of 12 GPs from six municipalities was undertaken. Data analysis used the framework method assisted by Atlas.ti software. Results: GPs in Chris Hani district felt that NHI would improve health and benefit society and be of particular benefit to poor and rural people as it will improve access to healthcare. Lack of governmental administrative capacity and a human resource plan were seen as barriers to implementation. They believed that NHI would benefit them through a single purchaser system and support more comprehensive care. GPs were concerned about a lack of information on primary care packages, accreditation, remuneration and patient allocation. -

Federal University Hospitals and Stochastic Frontier Model
Texto para Discussão 022 | 2017 Discussion Paper 022 | 2017 Federal University Hospitals and Stochastic Frontier Model Romero C. B. Rocha Instituto de Economia, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro André Médici Banco Mundial This paper can be downloaded without charge from http://www.ie.ufrj.br/index.php/index-publicacoes/textos-para-discussao Federal University Hospitals and Stochastic Frontier Model July, 2017 Romero C. B. Rocha Instituto de Economia, Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro André Médici Banco Mundial Resumo O objetivo deste trabalho é caracterizar os Hospitais Universitários Federais (HUFs) brasileiros em termos de sua importância, suas fraquezas, suas fortalezas e suas necessidades. Além disso, o trabalho vai analisar a relação entre os HUFs e o sistema hospitalar SUS, tentando explicar como eles podem melhorar a qualidade do atendimento e racionalizar esta relação. Revisitamos alguns estudos para entender a melhor maneira dos hospitais organizarem sua governança. Finalmente, rodamos um modelo de fronteira estocástica no intuito de construir rankings de eficiência para os hospitais e analisar o quanto eles poderiam aumentar sua produção com os insumos que possuem. Os resultados encontrados nos estudos revisitados mostram que a melhor maneira de organizar a governança é através do modelo de Organizações Sociais (OS), na qual o governo contrata um operador privado sem fins lucrativos para administrar as unidades. No entanto, as unidades continuam sendo propriedade do governo e 100% financiada pelo governo sob um contrato de desempenho baseado em resultado com riscos financeiros. Os resultados encontrados no modelo de fronteira mostram que os hospitais estão mais perto da eficiência na produção ambulatorial que na produção hospitalar. -
