outstanding medical bill for overseas treatment uncovered in the Controller and Auditing General (CAG) until thorough special medical auditing is conducted
Health Minister Mr Ummy Teacher told reporters in Dodoma on Tuesday that the CAG report reported that the bill was 28.6bn / - but has risen for six months up to 45.7bn / -, which is an increase in The amount of 17.1bn / - last year.

With this in mind, Mrs. Ummy said, her service would pay only after the audit was considered "increasing when the CAG measured the service, the bill was up to 28.6bn / - and the audit continued."

Mr Ummy added, the Ministry of Health faces CAG's advice that "we should improve domestic capacity in providing medical services rather than sending patients abroad for treatment." He said the government has begun to implement CAG proposals as a basis for kidney transplantation and heart surgery services available in the country.
