Ministry Identifies Anomalies in Free Medical Scheme
The Ministry of Finance has revealed that while the Public-Private Partnership for the Free Medical Scheme has been successful, with most General Practitioners receiving timely payments, some GPs have been identified as having anomalies and overcharging.
The Ministry states that in such cases, payments are held back until claims are reconciled, preventing abuse of the system.
The Public-Private Partnership for the Free Medical Scheme was introduced as part of the Government's health and economic response strategy during the COVID-19 pandemic and has continued, with 49 General Practitioners, Dental Practitioners, and Medical Laboratories, and 64 branches across the country participating.
