    "content": "Thank you Madam Speaker and thank you Members for raising those very pertinent concerns. In as far as the issue of NHIF having offices at the county level is concerned, that is something the Committee is going to discuss. It is important to make sure that NHIF is able to have an office in each and every county. In terms of reimbursements, normally when a hospital puts up a claim, it takes two weeks for NHIF to be able to reimburse those facilities. So, that is the standard practice and that is what is happening. If there is any facility that takes more than two weeks to get reimbursement, we would like that to come to the notice of NHIF. The other issues which have been raised about individual contributions and members failing to get reimbursed, that is a matter that the Committee should be able to take up because when the question was sought, that was not part of the question. We want the board to be able to reimburse those individuals what is owed to them. I think that is a serious issue and we can rest assured hon. (Ms.) Gathogo, hon. Munyao and hon. Mwaura that we will be able to take that seriously. Thank you."
