It is designed to fast-track the implementation of government priority programmes Through Operation Phakisa 2, the public health sector seeks to improve the quality of care provided in 3 500 Primary Health Care (PHC) facilities, which consists of government clinics and Community Health Centres (CHCs). This work entails transforming the existing clinics and CHCs into Ideal Clinics, which will be proudly utilised by all South Africans, out of choice, due to the enhanced quality of services they will provide. The President added that community members would say an Ideal Clinic is one that all South Africans can be proud of and call it our own clinic”, rather than a government clinic” or a state health facility”. Health Minister Dr Aaron Motsoaledi said if the country must move forward there’s a need to solve the two obstacles in the health system which are quality health care in the public health system and exorbitant prices charged in the private health care system.
