    "content": "or SHA and SHIF. I was very embarrassed because I expect a leader elected by the people, who I believe knows more than them, to use that opportunity to educate the people. You should tell them the right thing if they need to access renal care and dialysis at their dispensary or in a Level 4 Hospital. If they are unemployed, all they need is to do a mean-testing score. They will be advised how much premium they should pay and when. I know these are the cries that Kenyans have raised: that the mean-testing score demands you to pay for the annual premium for the whole year. That was the case under NHIF. You could not access renal care and cancer treatment without paying your annual premiums. Kenyans were paying then. Today, because SHA is yet to activate the insurance premium financing, they have opened up to Kenyans to pay every month. Let us educate our people that they can pay monthly premiums so as to access their dialysis and cancer treatment. Let Kenyans know that under SHIF they can access dialysis, chemotherapy, and radiotherapy, free of charge if they are registered with SHA and they pay their premiums. It does not matter whether it is annual premiums. If you have access to insurance premium financing you can pay annual premiums. If you cannot, discuss with them and pay your monthly premiums so as to access their services."
