National Health Sector Priorities
The major strategic framework for the work of the National Department of Health (NDoH) during 2012/13 was the Negotiated Service Delivery Agreement (NSDA) 2010 to 2014, which provides key strategies for accelerating progress towards the vision of “A Long and Healthy Life for all South Africans”.
The four outputs required from the health sector in terms of the NSDA are:
(a) Increased life expectancy;
(b) Reduction in maternal and child mortality rates;
(c) Combating HIV and AIDS and decreasing the burden of disease from Tuberculosis; and
(d) Strengthening health system effectiveness.
These outputs are interlinked. An effective and well-functioning health system is essential for the attainment of the desired improved health outcomes. The NSDA 2010 to 2014 informed the development, implementation and monitoring of the Annual Performance Plan (APP) of the NDoH for 2012/13.

Programme 1:
Administration and Corporate Services
Revenue Management Model:
• Interns were instrumental for implementing a project to improve revenue management at Charlotte Maxeke Hospital. The objectives of the Project were: – To reduce Medicom backlog in the hospital, due to system down time, and
– To improve data quality by correcting errors in patient contact details.
• The entire backlog of patient admissions dating back to April 2012 was cleared.
• 400 patients were registered daily, and 400 patient files were checked daily to improve data accuracy.
• The Road Accident Fund and Medical Scheme receipt allocations were earmarked for correction. Through the project, a total of R36.5 million receipts (R14million - RAF and R21.5 million - Medical Schemes) were reconciled to their invoices.
• The billing backlog to April 2012 for support services was also cleared.
• This model is currently being further rolled out in 6 provinces namely Gauteng, Free State, Limpopo, Eastern Cape, Limpopo and Northern Cape,

Research (CSIR) developed Normative Standards Framework –
subsequently adopted by National Health Council
Human Resources – Workload Indicators for Staffing Need (WISN)
model of WHO has been adopted and rolled out at PHC facilities in
health districts.
Quality – The National Health Act was amended and proclaimed in order
to establish an independent Office of Health Standards Compliance
(OHSC). This office has been established to improve quality of care. (see
Programme 6)
Infrastructure – 80% of Norms and Standards for health infrastructure
have been developed.

Programme 3: HIV and AIDS, TB and
Maternal, Child and Women’s Health
HIV and AIDS Prevention is the mainstay of efforts to combat HIV and AIDS
o During 2012/13 a total of 422 262 medical male circumcisions were
conducted, which was 70.4% of the 600 000 target set for 2012/13; and
o A total of 8 978 177 people accepted HIV Counselling and Testing
during 2012/13. After the HCT campaign of 2010/11 the programme
was integrated into the routine health services and this resulted in a
decrease of South Africans participating which is expected with any
campaign. The HCT Campaign will again be implemented during
2013/14.
A total of 612 118 new patients were put on Antiretroviral Treatment,
which exceeded the 2012/13 target of 500 000 patients.
25
Programme 3: HIV and AIDS, TB and
Maternal, Child and Women’s Health
26
85.3% of TB patients were tested for HIV. Though this was an improvement from the 82.9% achieved in 2011/12,
74.1% of eligible TB/HIV co-infected patients received Cotrimaxozole
Prophylaxis Therapy (CTP) to prevent opportunistic infections. A TB cure rate of 73.8% (for 2011) was achieved, against a target of 80%. A total of 360 168 HIV positive patients received Isoniazid Preventive Therapy
(IPT) - to prevent latent TB from progressing to clinically apparent disease - compared to the target of 400 000 patients.
26
Programme 3: HIV and AIDS, TB and
Maternal, Child and Women’s Health
Maternal and Woman's Health
For Couple year protection rate the Department has exceeded the 2012/13 target of 35 %, and a performance of of 37% was achieved.
All public health facilities provided contraceptive services.
55.4% of women were screened for cervical cancer, this was 1.4% above the 2012/13 target of 54%. This improvement is linked to improved training of healthcare providers to take cervical swabs.
44% of pregnant women presented to the health services before 20 weeks of pregnancy, which was 6% lower than the 2012/13 target of 50%.
65.2% of Mothers and 66.2% of Babies received postnatal care within 6 days after delivery, against a target of 75%.
27
28 28
Programme 3: HIV and AIDS, TB and
Maternal, Child and Women’s Health Maternal and Woman's Health cont...
98.2% of pregnant women were tested for HIV, which was consistent with the 2012/13 target of 98%.
81.6% antenatal clients were initiated on HAART, compared to the target of 85%, because initiation of HAART could only be done after CD4 counts were done and some women struggled to come back for the results and initiation.
2.5% of babies tested Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR) positive 6 weeks after birth (out of all babies tested) against the 2012/13 target of 3%. The outcomes of this programme continued to show a downward trend. This implies that a much lower proportion of babies contracted HIV from their mothers at birth.

Child Health
National immunisation coverage of 94% was achieved,
which exceeded the 2012/13 target of 90%.
A total of 10354 Quintile 1 and 2 schools were visited by
school health teams to provide Integrated School Health
Programme (ISHP). The 2012/13 target was to visit 6454
Quintile 1 schools.
A total of 84 281 Grade 8 learners assessed using the ISHP
learner assessment, compared to the target of 65 100
learners.

Re-engineering of PHC and District Health System
A PHC utilisation rate of 2.5 visits per person was achieved in
2012/13, against a target of 2.8 visits per person.
76% of fixed PHC facilities had monthly supervisory visits, against
the target of 80%. Supervision of PHC facilities was affected by a
lack of dedicated supervisors caused by shortages of staff.
51 District Health Plans (DHPs) were analysed and feedback
provided against the target of 52 DHPs – except one district in the
Western Cape.

Programme 6: Health Regulation and
Compliance Management
Medicines Control Council (MCC) :
During 2012/13, a total of 706 generic medicines were registered. 224 were from
the backlog. The remaining 482 were registered within an average period of 34
months. The target for 2012/13 was 15 months.
A total of 21 Human New Chemical Entities were registered with an average
period of 36 months. The target for 2012/13 was 28 months.
Addressing backlog in medicines registration is affected by:
The non-availability of evaluators, both in-house and external;
The evaluators that were appointed were undergoing training;
Difficulty to attract specialist evaluators at rates paid; and
Delays by applicants in responding to MCC recommendations.
Draft amendments to legislation to enable transition of the MCC to South African
Health Products Regulatory Authority was submitted to Cabinet.

Programme 6: Health Regulation and Compliance Management
Office of Health Standards Compliance (OHSC)
National Health Amendment Bill on establishment on the Office of
Health Standards Compliance was processed by Parliament. This
was enacted on 2 September 2013.
Number of inspectors appointed to assess compliance of public
health facilities with core standards of care increased towards the
end of the financial year
87.5% of the 64 randomly selected public sector hospitals
conducted patient satisfaction surveys at least once per year. The
target was 90% of the 400 public sector hospitals.
57% of the complaints were resolved within 25 days against the
target of 75%.
6.2% (235) of facilities were fully assessed for compliance with six
core standards of care, against the target of 20% (800 facilities).
49
Human Resources Management
For the year under review, Human Resources oversight
and control mechanisms have improved in the areas of
developing check lists for recruitment processes, as well
as implementation of exit processes, to determine causes
of staff turnover.
One of the achievements in this area relates to the
development of the Human Resource Plan and the
reduction of the vacancy rate.
These control measures responded to the prior year's
audit findings.
50
Human Resources Management
The implementation of the new organisational structure began
on 1 April 2012.
The first phase of matching and placing employees on the
three-tiers of the structure (Director-General, Deputy
Directors-General and Chief Directors levels) has been
completed.
The second phase of the matching process (Director and
below) is in progress, which will allow for a greater alignment
of functions.
51 51
Human Resources Management
The Department has created a dedicated Performance Management
and Development System (PMDS) Unit at a Directorate level to
provide advisory and administrative support in ensuring linkages
between individual and organisational performance.
An electronic PMDS system has been implemented to minimise the
administrative burden of the process.

AUDIT OUTCOME U Unqualified Audit Opinion for 2012/13.
Matters to be attended to:
– Due to internal controls not being fully implemented the department did not
have and maintain an effective and efficient system of internal control
regarding performance management. Key interventions include:
– Quarterly performance reports on Conditional Grants were not submitted
within 45 days after the end of each quarter to the National Treasury – This
has been addressed and Programme Managers are working closely with
Provinces to ensure timley submission of reports);
– Business plans for utilisation of the HIV and AIDS grant allocation made to all
provincial departments of health were not approved prior to the start of the
financial year – This has been addressed and all Business plans have been
signed prior to financial year and in terms of the framework.
59
AUDIT OUTCOME
U Unqualified Audit Opinion for 2012/13.
– Employees of the department performed remunerative work outside
their employment in the department without written permission.
– Annual leave taken by employees were not recorded in a timely
manner thereby ensuring that all leave is accounted for accurately and
in full.
– Employees of the department performed remunerative work outside
their employment in the department without written permission – HR
has instituted action against all the employees. National Treasury will
assist Departments to make available all the databases necessary to
properly control this situation
– Annual leave taken by employees were not recorded in a timely
manner thereby ensuring that all leave is accounted for accurately and
in full – All leave is now captured in line with prescripts from DPSA.
60
AUDIT PLANS
Audit plans to address findings have been developed
both for Performance Information as well as Financial
Regularity;
In addition the Department has identified a number of
additional audit risks and plans have been developed to
address these;
The protocol with the AG remains in place and a number
of close out and engagement meetings have been held.
61
Strengthening Internal Controls for Performance Information
Interventions Include : • Implementation of the electronic Tool (eTool) of the District Health Information
System (DHIS) across Provinces. This started in the 20 audited facilities in 2011/12, but the number of facilities has increased to approximately 120 facilities during 2012/13. It is planned that the eTool will be rolled-out to all facilities over a three year period.
• Uniform Facility Level implementation of the District Health Information Management System (DHIMS) Policy. The Facility Level Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) were approved in November 2012. These SOPS outline the roles and responsibilities of facility-level personnel with regard to data management within facilities.
• Revision of the National Indicator Data Set (NIDS) 2013/14 to 2014/15 was completed and the final revised NIDS was approved. The revised NIDS includes validation rules at the level of indicator and data elements definitions.
• Linked to the revision of the NIDS a process has started to rationalise facility registers , which were identified as one of the contributing factors to the audit findings.
• All nine provinces and the NDoH have formulated plans to address the finding of the 2012/13 audit of Performance Information by the Auditor General (SA) and various strategies to improve the quality of Performance Information are discussed at the meetings of the National Health Information Systems Committee of South Africa (NHISSA). 62
