Avert SHA technical hitches to save lives

Kenyans who rely on the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF) for critical medical treatments like chemotherapy and dialysis are facing significant financial burdens. Reports indicate that patients are being compelled to cover the costs of these essential services themselves. This situation arises due to alleged technical hitches within the NHIF system, preventing the fund from processing and covering these life-saving treatments as intended.

This situation directly impacts the accessibility and affordability of essential healthcare for vulnerable populations in Kenya.
