    "content": "Hon. Speaker, I am saddened to learn that in some counties, including Trans Nzoia County, many hospitals have not yet been enlisted with SHA. No one can walk into a public health facility and get SHA services if the county government has not enlisted the facility in SHA. That is where you hear much negativity. People, including some county governors, claim that SHA is not working. It cannot work if the hospital is not listed with SHA. The system will not work if you are not registered as a paid-up member. The first pillar of the Universal Health Coverage (UHC) that we deliberated on when we passed those laws about a year and a half ago was to ensure free primary healthcare in Level 1, 2 and 3 hospitals across the country. However, resourcing those healthcare facilities must come from the Exchequer, which is what we are now doing. We are giving them an additional sum of Ksh3 billion, which is projected to be realised from members' monthly premiums.
