5. Negotiated Service Delivery Agreement (NSDA) 2010-2014 • In May 2010, the Minister of Health entered into a Performance Agreement with the

President of the country.

• The Performance Agreement focuses on achieving government’s Outcome 2: “A long and healthy life for all South Africans” and has four (4) strategic outputs:

Output 1:Increasing Life Expectancy Output 2:Decreasing Maternal and Child mortality Output 3: Combating HIV and AIDS and decreasing the burden of

diseases from Tuberculosis Output 4: Strengthening Health System Effectiveness

• In October 2010, the Health Sector’s Negotiated Service Delivery Agreement (NSDA) 2010-2014 was finalised and signed, to ensure achievement of these outputs.

• A consultative process was followed in the development of the NSDA, which included Provincial DoHs; other government departments, stakeholders and international development partners.

• Strategic and Annual Performance Plans of the National DoH will henceforth be based on the NSDA 2010-2014.

• Reporting for 2010/11 is based on the current medium-term Strategic Plan 2010/11-2012/13.

5. Highlights of Performance on the Departmental Strategic Plan 2010/11-2012/13 during Q3 of 2010/11

5.1. Programme 1: Administration

Achievements

• Key milestones are being recorded in the implementation of the Financial Management Turn Around Plan for the Health sector, developed jointly with the Technical Assistant Unit (TAU) in the National Treasury.

• The Financial Management Turn Around Plan was developed in response to assessments conducted by the Integrated Support Teams (IST), and the Auditor General of South Africa (AGSA), which highlighted common challenges in financial management namely:

Inadequate budget processes; Poor revenue generation and management; Expenditure management, including monitoring of Compensation

of Employees; Ineffective Supply Chain Management, Poor Asset Management and Performance Information audit limitations

Page 9: PRESENTATION TO THE PORTFOLIO COMMITTEE ON HEALTH:

5.1. Programme 1: Administration

Achievements

• Province specific plans have been developed to improve financial management in 7/9 Provinces.

• Key cost drivers in health care delivery were identified, which include: Compensation of employees; High prices for pharmaceutical supplies, which are influenced by a high

demand as well as the inflation rate (driven by increased patient numbers);

Medical inflation rate, which is higher than normal inflation; Increasing patient numbers of due to the increased burden of disease; Increases in fuel costs resulting from increased demand and high

expenditure on Patient Transport and Ambulance services.

• Progress with the implementation of the Financial Management Turn Around Plan plans is a standing item on the Agenda of the National Health Council.

13. Explanation of Expenditure versus Budget Variance.

• The under expenditure for Compensation of Employees as at December 2010, was due to the outstanding payments for salary increases for SMS members, pay progression for PMDS for SMS members as well as payment of OSD for qualifying health professionals at National DoH. The expenditure is expected to be on target at year end.

• The Goods and Services under expenditure is related to commitments in the system, some of which are awaiting deliveries and invoices which have to be paid before financial year end.

• Under expenditure for capital payments is already committed for procurement of forensic chemistry laboratory equipment as well as infrastructure for Civitas IT network. All commitments will be paid by year end.
