Carte Blanche:  Doctors dump SA – WATCH

The 23 March episode of Carte Blanche highlights the growing exodus of South African doctors, driven by a collapsing healthcare system and the government’s controversial National Health Insurance (NHI) scheme.

As the country faces a critical shortage of medical professionals, public healthcare is under increasing strain, leaving patients with limited access to quality treatment.

Despite medical experts’ concerns, the government is pushing ahead with the NHI plan, raising questions about whether South Africa can afford to lose more doctors to emigration while its healthcare sector battles ongoing crises.

Carte Blanche is a South African investigative journalism television series that airs on M-Net every Sunday at 19:00.

Its first episode aired on 21 August 1988 and over the last 34-plus years has earned credibility among South African viewers for its investigation into corruption, consumer issues, and current events.
