    "content": "the Ministry of Health held lengthy deliberations with the ministry officials and afterwards made a number of recommendations both on policy and budgetary allocations. The Ministry of Health has a budget of Kshs.90 billion in the Financial Year 2018/2019 which is an enhanced allocation compared to this current financial year which was at Kshs.78 billion. Most of these allocations are conditional grants to the county governments. As you are all aware health is devolved. Also there are allocations to various parastatals in the sector such as Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH), Kenya Medical Research Institute (KEMRI), Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH), and Kenya Medical Supplies Agency (KEMSA) among others. With this budget allocation the Ministry will be implementing four key programmes with the following allocations in addition to administration costs: Preventive and promotion of health care at around Kshs.9.9 billion, national referral and specialist services at Kshs.40 billion, health research and development at Kshs.6.8 billion, general administration and planning at Kshs.9.1 billion and health policy, standards and regulations at Kshs.23.8 billion."
