Tables 21 and 22 above shows the summary of payments and estimates for Provincial Hospital Services
per sub-programme and economic classification. The programme’s total expenditure decreased from

R4.026 billion in 2019/20 to a revised estimate of R3.890 billion in 2022/23. In 2023/24, the budget
decreases by 0.1 per cent from R3.890 billion to R3.886 billion when compared to the 2022/23 revised
estimate.

Compensation of employees shows a negative growth of 3.8 per cent from R3.068 billion to R2.951 billion

when compared to the 2022/23 revised estimate due to COVID-19 (vaccination programme) expiry of
contracts that will not be renewed.

Goods and services show a positive growth of 28.9 per cent from R686.170 million to R884.335 million

when compared to the 2022/23 revised estimate due to additional funding of core items and internal
reprioritisation to fund cost pressures for National Health laboratory services, medical supplies, municipal
services and Chronic Psychiatric care.

Transfers and subsidies show a negative growth of 65.2 per cent from R110.540 million to R38.426 million
when compared to the 2022/23 revised estimate due to a high revised estimate as a result of payment of
Medico Legal Claims.

Payments for capital assets show a negative growth of 12.9 per cent from R14.177 million to

R12.351 million when compared to the 2022/23 revised estimate, due to reprioritisation to fund pressures
under goods and services.
