Purpose: To present a model of health care delivery in South Africa that made health care services accessible and affordable to members of the community who do not have medical insurance.
Data sources: Statutes and laws governing the practice of health care professionals in South Africa, published professional guidelines, local research data, and the author's experience of the model of health care delivery.
Conclusions: The innovative and visionary approach of a few health care professionals has established a model of health care delivery specifically suited to their community's needs. This model of service delivery has provided an affordable and accessible health service to members of the local community, who have indicated their satisfaction with the service.
Implications for practice: Economic and legal barriers to accessible and affordable health care services can be overcome to ensure that health care is available to the whole population. The nurse practitioner has an important role to play in making health care affordable and accessible to the community.
