Further, the Social Health Authority (SHA) aims to provide affordable accessible and quality healthcare services to Kenya as guided by the essential health benefit package that defines the services covered by the Social Health Insurance Fund (SHIF). Social Health Authority (SHA) will use the Essential Medicines List to guide the reimbursement of health services and health products to health facilities for various conditions including those provided for People with Disabilities (PWDs).
