In a statement, Prime Minister Peter O’Neill said more than K6 billion is invested each year to improve healthcare.
“While we still have a lot of work to do, universal healthcare is becoming a reality around Papua New Guinea,” stated the PM.
“The amount of money a person has in their pocket should not determine if they can see a doctor or receive healthcare.
“Over the past five years, working with our partners, including churches, we have expanded medical services to remote areas and rebuilt hospitals.
