    "content": "seamless integration of services from both county and national governments. We know very well that referral hospitals are a function of national Government and the other hospitals are a function of counties but if there is digital provision, there is going to be seamless interaction between the facilities at the county and national levels. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, this is what may provide an efficient referral platform for patients and we may not need to refer patients using an ambulance, transporting a critical patient all the way from West Pokot to Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) or the Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH), but we can quickly do a referral on the digital platform, get the results and the patient is attended to at that sub- county facility in any part of this country. These are the benefits this nation will have once we adopt this Bill. Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir, I know my time is up but I urge all my colleagues to support and pass this Bill so that we can roll out the Universal Health Coverage (UHC); and for the first time, any citizen of Kenya can get consultant services on a digital platform across the nation. I support, Mr. Temporary Speaker, Sir."
