"content": " Thank you, Hon. Deputy Speaker. I ask the Hon. Chairman to guide us because we have many people with chronic diseases who have been using NHIF. From today, we are changing to the Social Health Insurance Fund (SHIF). They need to understand that people tried *147#, but they were not able to enter into the system. What is a bit sad for me is that we can imagine somebody who is going for dialysis will not know what to do when they arrive in the hospital. How I wish the Ministry of Health could put out a public notice saying that those under NHIF that are going through dialysis will be put into the new system when they go to hospital and that they will be given a SHIF card. That will help us. Lastly, if we want to be people who look at humanity in the eye, I am hoping that the system never cost us Ksh104 billion at a time when the President is struggling with Eurobond, which again was a bad mistake. That Eurobond cost us 16 per cent to the dollar, while at the same time Egypt was getting the same Eurobond at 3 per cent. Let us not go back to those things that happened in 2013/2014. It will be wrong and evil. Thank you."
