The Queen Elizabeth Hospital reports arrears of up to 40 million dollars owed by the public that they are currently trying to collect.
Yesterday the QEH announced that clients with arrears would receive a 25 per cent discount on the amounts owed provided they pay by next Tuesday, October 31st.
Chief Operations Officer, Dr. Christine Greenidge, says these are balances based on the accounting records at the hospital.
She said they have increased their social media messaging to highlight the discount being offered.
The hospital has also used debt collection services as a last resort.
