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. -

Prof Lungile Pepeta (16 July 1974 - 7 August 2020)
IN MEMORIAM Prof Lungile Pepeta (16 July 1974 - 7 August 2020) Professor Lungile Pepeta was born and bred in Ludeke, a village just outside Bizana, Eastern Cape, South Africa, where he grew up attending to cattle like all young men in the villages. He received his primary and secondary education in Bizana and matriculated from Bizana Village High School in 1991. Lungile was drawn into the field of Medicine immediately after matricu- lating. He joined the Faculty of Health Sciences at the University of Transkei (now Walter Sisulu University) in 1992 as a medical student, graduating at the top of his class with his MBChB degree in 1997. After qualifying as a medical doctor, he went on to do his internship at the Mthatha General Hospital (now Nelson Mandela Academic Hospital) in 1998. The internship was followed by community service as a medical officer undertaken at the Frontier Hospital in Queenstown and Dordrecht Hospital in 1999. It was then that he developed a passion for paediatrics and went on to complete a Diploma in Child Health Examination with the Colleges of Medicine of South Africa in October 1999. After community service, Lungile took up a position as a Medical Officer in Paediatrics at King Edward VIII Hospital in January 2000. In July 2000, he joined the Registrar Training Programme in Paediatrics at the University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN). He was admitted as a Fellow of Paediatricians by the College of Paediatrics, obtaining an FC Paed (SA) certificate after passing his exit written and oral exami- nations in 2003. After qualifying as a paediatrician, he moved back to the Eastern Cape to take the position as Head of Paediatrics Department at Frontier Hospital in July 2004.
