The sums donโt add up โ in South Africa, over half the money spent on healthcare services only reaches 16 percent of the population.

Carte Blanche catches up on the NHI juggernaut. Is it steamrolling on or trundling slowly towards completion? And on the ground, what are we having to live and die through as we wait for the transformation of South Africa's healthcare system?
