Leverage existing resources to meet health sector demands - Chen

Wayne Chen, Chairman of the Southern Regional Health Authority, is urging the Jamaican Government to find ways of leveraging existing resources to meet the demands in the health sector, which, according to him, is operating under severe financial constraints. 
     
Mr. Chen, speaking at the Hargreaves Memorial Hospital's 10th Anniversary Awards, in Mandeville on Thursday, revealed that the capital budget for the authority is $8 billion, but it receives only $20 million.  
    
This, he said, made it difficult to enact the improvements needed in the region.
