    "content": " Thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker. I also rise to thank our sister, Hon. Dr. Lilian, but more importantly for just giving me the opportunity because last week I walked into the meeting of the Departmental Committee on Health just to understand. This health cover is the best for Kenyans. However, what we need to understand and what the Committee and the Chairman of the Departmental Committee on Health needs to understand, is that you cannot have a system where you appreciate the hardware but you forget that software is what will make the hardware work. That is the crisis we are in. One of the things I need them to come and explain to us, is that in all insurances, there is a cap. In SHIF there is no cap. So, if someone is paying based on your salary, you are just paying. Those are some of the things Kenyans are feeling. They need more explanation. There must be a cap on this. It is time Members of Parliament put up desks in their constituencies. Let us register our people through our community health workers, so that we see these numbers and get to understand. We should also have a tent at Bunge so that we can know whether or not we are registered. My phone does not show me whether I contributed money this month. How will I know that I am contributing? The big problem is the system analysis. Hon. Temporary Speaker, the digital aspect is faring even worse. These multi-agencies have brought us into this crisis, yet we bought a machine for Ksh105 billion. We should not be in this crisis. We should now be celebrating a health cover for everyone. We are putting our President into a lot of trouble because of what we have done, yet the confusion is in the Ministry of Health. The Ministry of Health must come here for a Kamukunji and re-align everything. They should tell us how the claims management system works, and how the counties will benefit. How will people register with their county hospitals so that they can benefit? That is very critical. Thank you, Daktari, but we need a Kamukunji very fast."
