In the Statement, the Committee should: (1) Explain the factors leading to the decline in growth of the NHIF, leading the scheme to post a loss during 2019. (2) State the measures, if any, that have been put in place to ensure contributions by the public towards the Fund are not pilfered and that there is no disruption in payment of benefits to members in light of the challenges currently being faced by the NHIF. (3) Provide information on the Fund’s deposits from members vis-à-vis honoured and pending claims raised by hospitals arising from medical services provided to members of the scheme during the past two years."
