The public will have extra time to hand in written submissions on the National Health Insurance (NHI) Bill after Parliament’s Portfolio Committee on Health extended the closing date.
Committee chairperson Dr Sibongiseni Dhlomo said on Wednesday that the closing date changed from October 11 to November 29, after people asked for an extension.
“We have been considering the requests from relevant stakeholders who play an important role in the delivery of healthcare in the country.”
He said the new closing date did not affect the start of public hearings later this month. The hearings will start in Mpumalanga from October 25 to 28, before moving to the Northern Cape from November 1 to 4.
Quality universal healthcare
The committee previously indicated that the public engagement process would also take place over weekends to accommodate those who were unavailable during the week.
The NHI Bill seeks to achieve quality universal healthcare in South Africa and establish a National Health Insurance Fund.
The Bill also sets out the powers, function and governance structures of the fund and provides a framework for the purchase of healthcare services on behalf of users.
Written submissions must be sent to Ms Vuyokazi Majalamba and be addressed to the Portfolio Committee on Health, 3rd floor, 90 Plein Street, Cape Town 8000; e-mailed to vmajalamba@parliament.gov.za; or faxed to 086 694 3279 by the closing date.
Those who make a submission should also indicate whether they would like to do a verbal presentation.
Copies of the NHI Bill can be obtained from Majalamba or on Parliament’s website.
Although regular screening mammograms can catch breast cancer early, new research suggests women over 75 who have chronic illnesses can probably skip this test.
The study findings indicate that women with chronic conditions, such as heart disease or diabetes, would likely die from those conditions before developing breast cancer.
“For those 75 and over with chronic illness, the benefit of continued mammography is minimal. Women 75 to 84 are 123 times more likely to die of other causes than breast cancer,” said the study’s senior author, Dejana Braithwaite.
That doesn’t mean all women over 75 should forgo mammography. “In healthy women age 75 and older, perhaps mammograms may make sense. It’s important to individualise the decision. Women should discuss with their providers the potential benefits of continuing mammography,” Braithwaite said. She’s an associate professor of epidemiology and oncology at Georgetown University’s Lombardi Comprehensive Cancer Center, in Washington, DC.
Professional guidelines vary in their recommendations for mammography in older women. The American Cancer Society advises women to stop screening when their life expectancy is less than 10 years. Meanwhile, the US Preventive Services Task Force (USPSTF) says there is not enough evidence to guide women’s decisions about mammography at age 75 and up. Many European breast cancer programmes stop recommending screening between 69 and 74 years.
One reason for these variations is there are few studies looking specifically at how mammography might benefit older women, the researchers noted.
To help fill that gap, the investigators looked at more than 222 000 women who’d had a mammogram between 1999 and 2010. The women were between the ages of 66 and 94. They were recruited from five US centres.
The researchers tracked breast cancer cases, deaths from breast cancer and deaths from other causes for 10 years. During that time, almost 7 600 of the women were diagnosed with an invasive breast cancer. More than 1 700 had abnormal cells considered very early breast cancer (DCIS).
During those 10 years, 471 women died from breast cancer. More than 42 000 died from other causes, the findings showed. Breast cancer deaths accounted for between 0.2% and 0.3% of all deaths in women between 66 and 94.
Over time, the risk of dying from breast cancer stayed steady while the risk of death from other causes rose. The investigators also found that the risk of being diagnosed with a new breast cancer after age 75 went down slightly over time.
Deana Baptiste, director of cancer screening guideline development at the American Cancer Society, said this research “reinforces the guidelines we put out in 2015 that recommended that women should continue mammography as long as their overall health is good”.
There’s no set cut-off age for stopping mammography, she added.
Like the researchers, the cancer society also emphasises the need for individualised decisions about screening.
“A healthy woman with at least 10 years of life expectancy should be assessed by a clinician, discuss the risks and harms, and apply personal preferences about whether screening should continue,” Baptiste said.
Dr Bonnie Litvack, director of women’s imaging at Northern Westchester Hospital in Mount Kisco, New York, said this study seems in line with current guidelines.
“Women need to understand the risks and benefits of continued screening, but there’s no established age to stop. The age to stop screening should be tailored to the individual patient,” she said.
The study was published in the Journal of the National Cancer Institute.

Visakhapatnam – Senior batsman Rohit Sharma struck a half-century in his first outing as Test opener to help India start strongly in the first match against South Africa on Wednesday.
LIVE: Proteas v India: 1st Test, Day 1
Sharma – a star of India’s limited-overs teams – made 52 as the hosts reached 91 for no loss at lunch after electing to bat first at the start of the three-match series in Visakhapatnam.
The 32-year-old Sharma, playing his 28th Test, was put under pressure by the South African quicks early in the innings but gradually found his pace with partner Mayank Agarwal, on 39.
Sharma’s 84-ball knock so far witnessed glimpses of his big-hitting one-day form as he smashed five fours and two sixes to fire up a raucous home crowd.
He got to his 11th Test 50 with a cheeky boundary off debut spinner Senuran Muthusamy that was in the air but went wide of the fielder at backward square.
Agarwal also played an assured knock, using his feet to good effect against the South African spinners on a pitch that seems to offer big runs on the first two days.
South Africa, led by Faf du Plessis, rotated their spinners led by Keshav Maharaj for a large part of the morning session.
The tourists, who suffered a 3-0 loss in a four-Test series during their last Indian tour in 2015, have a spin heavy attack and two pacemen in Kagiso Rabada and Vernon Philander.
