Speaker, I rise to ask the CS for Health the following Question: (i) Could the Cabinet Secretary state how many patients are currently held at national and other private health institutions for non-payment of medical bills? (ii) How many bodies of patients who died during treatment are being held in national and other private mortuaries for inability to settle hospital or mortuary fees? (iii) What is the total amount owed to those health facilities in respect of patients both alive and dead, and what is the Ministry doing to deal with the accumulation of such cases? (iv) Is the Cabinet Secretary aware that some health institutions have detention rooms for defaulting patients? What steps are being taken to deal with this vice?"
