The Namibian government is at an advanced stage in the reform of the Public Service Employee Medical Aid Scheme (PSEMAS).

This is to ensure that the N$3.2 billion the government spends annually is geared towards improving the public health sector and various services, which include upgrading health facilities and providing critical resources such as ambulances.

Prime Minister Saara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila says that PSEMAS has been abused by its members and the service providers, who at times claimed for services not rendered.
