Signing of the National Health Insurance (NHI) bill

As you would have seen in the news, the NHI bill has now been signed by President Ramaphosa. The signing of the NHI bill will have no impact on the Fishing Industry Medical Scheme or any other medical scheme for the foreseeable future. Following the passing of the bill, full implementation will take several years. In the interim, medical schemes and the private healthcare sector will continue to operate without any change.
