    "content": " I was not able to contribute on the particular amendment yesterday. This is a good opportunity. I just want to mention that this is, indeed, a very good amendment, and I thank Hon. Gladys Wanga for it. The bills that are sent to NHIF by some healthcare providers are astounding. You may find paracetamol being sold at Kshs30 at the Nairobi Hospital, Kshs70 at another hospital and at Kshs10 at yet another hospital. With such a centralised healthcare management system, it will be possible for the NHIF to standardise the cost of pharmaceuticals and certain procedures at either private or public hospital. That way, no hospital will overcharge the Fund on the basis of the billings they do. I encourage the NHIF Board and its management to immediately procure a system that will ensure that they have such a centralised system and operationalise it in all empanelled hospitals across the country because it will help in saving funds for the Fund and deliver quality healthcare to Kenyans."
