Cross River State Primary Health Care Development Agency, CRSPHCDA have had several issues of fake Doctors organizing outreach in Primary Health Centres (PHCs) across Cross River State without the permission of the Agency. So, Calabar Reporters conducted an interview with the Director General (DG), Dr. Betta Edu on the measures to curtail these act in the Agency.
With good remarks when addressing our correspondent, Dr. Edu was keen enough to tell Calabar Reporters that there’s been a way out to tackle the illegal act being used by infiltrators to ruin the hard work of the Agency and it has been documented which sooner or later will be published.
Dr. Betta Edu said you cannot go to a community and carry out any medical or anything concerning the PHCs without; first, writing to CRSPHCDA and having your document or capacity verified by the Agency.
She added that, the Agency will be going out to the Chairmen of LGAs, Supervisors of Health and the PHCs Cordinators, so that everyone is in the know.
Dr. Edu warned that anyone caught violating any of the CRSPHCDA act, will be prosecuted.
