The coalition government is already working with its partners to improve healthcare facilities says Finance Minister, Professor Biman Prasad.
The Minister highlighted this during a budget consultation in Nadi when a medical practitioner made suggestions to include more services in the Free GP Scheme.
“We are acutely aware of the need to provide good health services. We know and many of you know that over the years our health facilities public health facilities have deteriorated and these services have helped cope with that, we also believe that we need to improve our services in our health centres and hospitals.”
