MVA spends P40m on medical costs

The Motor Vehicle Accident (MVA) Fund spends P40 million annually on medical costs toward road accident victims, said the organisation at yesterday’s launch of the National Road Safety Symposium (NRSS).

MVA chief injury prevention officer, Mompati Bontsibokae said it is very important that each company preaches to and educates its employees on behavioural change at their work places.

“MVA spends lots of money on victims on medical expenses every year. The reason why we have partnered with police to educate people about road safety is because of the money that we are spending.  Again it is not good to lose our families to road accidents. We also spend P122 million on benefits, which means taking care of families which are now disadvantaged because their child or their parents died in a car accident,” Bontsibokae said.
