    "content": "Mr. Speaker, Sir, when somebody is charged after the loss of a loved one, that is double tragedy for them. First of all, they lose their loved one whom they wanted to take care of. Secondly, there is a huge bill that--- These people are left with huge bills. Therefore, it is like the person has died twice and people are so helpless, especially people who are unstable financially. All Kenyans are not the same. Mr. Speaker, Sir, the other thing is that most people are not aware of the National Hospital Insurance Fund (NHIF). By just paying a voluntary contribution of Kshs500, one can receive some reprieve in terms of medical bills. I am happy that the Senator has given an undertaking that he will take this matter to the next level. We really need to save Kenyans from the trouble of medical care, especially with the surge of critical illness like cancer. It is so painful when a person dies and somebody locks up the body for lack of payment. We have lost humanity in this country."
