News24.com | TV anchor and producer Doreen Morris opens intimidation case against ADT guards

You Need Posted on by

Television anchor and producer Doreen Morris opened a case of intimidation against Fidelity ADT security guards this week.

Speaking to News24, Morris said she had felt harassed by two private security guards after she parked her vehicle along Kelvin Drive in Morningside on Monday.

“I had left my house and about a kilometre away I realised there was an email that I needed to attend to. I found a spot where I parked under shade and checked my email. 

“A security guard approached me and said I was not allowed to park there. I replied that I was not wrong and I was allowed to park on the side of a public road,” said Morris.

She added that another man then came and asked her to leave his property.

“I told the man that I was parked on the side of the road and not on his property. I could have left easily if it was a matter of principle, but I didn’t because I didn’t want to subject myself to being treated like a criminal,” she said.

Ten minutes later, a Fidelity ADT vehicle arrived and the security guard also asked her to leave, but she refused.

“I wanted to park my car under shade where I could attend to my email. I wasn’t disturbing anybody. A few minutes later, a second Fidelity ADT van arrived and the second guard also asked me to leave the place and I refused again.

“I then started taking pictures of the security vehicles which angered one of the guards, who asked me not to take pictures of their cars. The Fidelity ADT guards then blocked the road and prevented my car from leaving and they called the police.”

 

Morris said they waited an hour-and-a-half for the police to arrive until the owner of the house, which she was parked close to, arrived.

She added that the property owner then asked the guards to photograph her licence disc and registration number.

“The house belongs to one of the prominent people. I managed to locate someone who is close to the owner who advised me to lay criminal charges.”

Morris claimed she had opened harassment charges at Sandton police station. 

Sandton police station spokesperson Captain Granville Meyer confirmed to News24 a case of intimidation was under investigation.

No arrests have been made at this stage.

“The complainant alleges that she received messages threatening her,” Meyer said. 

In a tweet, Fidelity ADT told Morris to “… please allow us to investigate the situation”.

The company could not be reached for comment. Once received, the story will be updated.

#HASA2019: After NHI – South Africans can still choose medical aids

You Need Posted on by

One of big questions being asked ever since National Health Insurance (NHI) was first mooted is what medical aids will look like and whether they would even exist under NHI.

According to the NHI Bill currently before Parliament, medical schemes can offer ‘complimentary services’ not offered under NHI. Commentators have interpreted as cosmetic procedures or unaffordable essential services such as rare diseases with a poor prognosis.

Dr Jonathan Broomberg, CEO of Discovery Health, asked for clarification of what these services entailed during a panel discussion at the Hospital Association of South Africa, (HASA), annual conference in Cape Town.

Dr Anban Pillay, deputy director general of the National Department of Health, (NDoH), replied that ‘complimentary services’ referred to patients who saw a private practitioner and did not claim from the proposed NHI could self fund or go to an alternative private funder.

Broomberg interpreted this as meaning that if a woman was pregnant and needed antenatal care and elected not to use the NHI, a medical scheme could fund her. “It’s a major relief for us,” he said, emphasising that Discovery Health was fully behind the intentions of the NHI and fully supported expanding healthcare equity.

Between now and when NHI is fully implemented in about six years’ time, medical schemes would continue to exist in their current form, Pillay said.

He confirmed that after the NHI is fully implemented people would still need to be registered, follow the primary care lead referral pathway with accredited NHI providers for the NHI to reimburse the costs.

If people chose not to follow the NHI referral pathway they could seek private cover. The panellists agreed that increasing access to quality healthcare was non-negotiable, but that the lack of engagement has resulted in heightened uncertainty.

Services evolving

The full package of services is unlikely to would not be the same “in year three, five or seven – it will be constantly evolving,” Pillay said.

Melanie da Costa, director, strategy and healthcare policy, Netcare clarified how medical scheme benefits would be amended as the NHI is rolled out as per the Draft Medical Scheme Amendment Bill of 2018. The discussion concluded that the minimum benefits a scheme would cover would be amended and the NHI benefits are expanded but that medical scheme could offer more than the minimum.

The Health Market Inquiry outlined a number of steps towards reforming the private sector. Dealing with care co-ordination and a basic benefit package properly could release billions of rands into the health economy – if handled correctly. No other sector could generate employment at both ends of the value chain, from palliative or frail care to skilled specialists, technology and research, said Dr Guni Goolab, principal officer, Government Employee Medical Scheme (GEMS).

Meanwhile, Dr Terence Moodley, board member of the SA Medical Technology Industry Association said the “elephant in the room,” was the opportunity for fraud and corruption the NHI Bill could create. Dr Stavros Nicolaou, chairman of the Pharmaceutical Task Group said achieving a balance between sustaining private businesses and bridging the Gini co-efficient was vital. Unless the private healthcare sector remained viable and sustainable, the broader economy would be badly impacted. This merely emphasised why a collaborative approach built on mutual trust was so essential, he said.
