    "content": " I thank you, Hon. Temporary Speaker for this opportunity. I really appreciate the focus of the Chairperson of the Departmental Committee on Health. However, there are some clarifications that Kenyans need to be told. On the matter of registration, there are new registrations. The people who have never been with the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF) and there are old card holders of the NHIF. That matter needs to be clarified because what is happening, particularly with the old card holders, they appear in hospital where the outpatient is working, but the inpatient is not working and vice versa. I thought the Chairperson could also come out clearly to tell us the causes of these delays. Is it a system failure? Is it a human created failure? Or it is natural because it is very funny. The Government is doing whatever it can. I believe there is something wrong at the NHIF or SHA, whatever it is. This is something that the Committee needs to investigate to find out who is causing this delay because surely, when I use my identification document (ID) and my old card number, I am not able to access. We have been blaming Kenyans for not having digital phones. But at my constituency level at Buuri Constituency, I assign my staff to go around asking people who are not registered to register. But when you try to access that system, it is a nightmare. So we need to know exactly what is the cause of this delay. Is this an intentional delay? Or is this a sabotage? What is it? This scheme is the best, but if Kenyans are not able to access the services, we cannot be sitting here every day."
