Anesthesiologists Society of Namibia President, Dr. Jesse Mumba, Addresses NAMAF Tariff Standstill

today25 January, 2024

Background

Dr. Jesse Mumba, President of the Anesthesiologists Society of Namibia, has weighed in on the current situation regarding the Namibian Association of Medical Aid Funds. Informed by the association last year, NAMAF announced that the tariffs set in 2023 would remain unchanged as the nation transitions into 2024. This decision, while seemingly maintaining stability, effectively translates into a reduction in member benefits. Dr. Mumba offers insights into the implications of this NAMAF tariff stance on both practitioners and the healthcare landscape in Namibia.
