    "content": " Mr. Speaker, Sir, I beg to answer. (a) It is not the policy of the KNH to detain bodies of patients whose relatives are too poor to raise the outstanding hospital bills. (b) The late Stephen Thuo was admitted at the critical care unit of the hospital on 2nd March 2009, and passed away on 19th April 2009 having incurred a bill of Kshs583, 125 as at May 2009. The mortuary bill had accumulated to Kshs4, 500 bringing the total amount payable by relatives of the deceased to Kshs587, 625. The relatives are free to collect the body for burial upon payment of this outstanding amount. However, should they not be in a position to pay part or the entire bill, the hospital has a credit facility, which they can utilize. If they wish to utilize it, they are requested to present themselves to the Chief Executive Officer, who will then initiate the credit assessment process."
