Abstract
As part of the strategy to introduce national health insurance (NHI) in South Africa, the National Department of Health embarked on a process of re-engineering primary health care. Achieving this goal requires the participation of the public and private sector providers. Charles Hongoro reports on a study to find out why there is such a low uptake of national contracts by general practitioners (GPs) to provide these services. Here are the findings.-
