Privatising healthcare
#2
It kind of has been going on for a while now to some degree.
I know a couple of people who have had some elective surgery done at the private hospital but paid for through the public health system.
My gastroenterologist I see privately also works for the DHB, performing colonoscopies at the hospital and reportedly they are sending some patients to him privately too.
The biggest concern I have is that even if you are insured and wanting to see someone private, that there appears to be quite a wait even through the private system.
Im not sure whats going on, but my suspicion is that the private system is possibly overloaded with DHB patients being referred to them?
