    "content": " Indeed, I acknowledge that women with disability require assisted delivery. As the Government, we have two programmes. One is Linda Mama, which takes care of all women in terms of delivery. It begins from them being able to attend clinics during and after delivery. This Financial Year, the Government put Kshs4.98 billion for support of Linda Mama. Two, we have Government health insurance subsidy for people living with severe disability that they are able to access health services. One of the Acts that was enacted is the Social Health Insurance Act. In that Act, we have developed a benefit package to ensure that every person is taken care of. For those who are unable to pay, the Government is going to work on a programme to ensure that they pay for them to access services. Equally, in that Social Health Insurance Act, we have the primary healthcare fund that ensures all primary healthcare, Level 1 to Level 3 is publicly financed. This means that people will not have to pay any out-of-pocket to access services."
