South Africa’s 2025/26 health budget aims to make health care fair and available to everyone through the National Health Insurance (NHI). It focuses on fighting diseases like cancer, mental illness, and malaria, while promoting healthy living to prevent growing health problems. Big steps are planned to improve hospitals, research, and health services across the country. This budget honors a 70yearold promise that health is a human right and shows the country’s strong hope and effort to build a healthier future for all.
