Health Minister Aaron Motsoaledi has dismissed fears that the National Health Insurance scheme could fall prey to state capture, following revelations of massive corruption at Tembisa Hospital. He argues that structural reforms in the NHI will prevent such abuses and that delaying universal healthcare would unfairly punish ordinary South Africans. Motsoaledi emphasized the need to recover lost funds while pushing forward with implementation.
