"content": " I am exactly doing that. I am answering the Question No. 033 and No.034 by the Senator for Nairobi City. The Ministry of Education engaged the former NHIF to provide a comprehensive medical insurance cover for all students in public secondary schools. This scheme was branded EduAfya, which commenced on 1st May, 2018, and was renewable annually for a period of five years, lapsing 31st December. This scheme was rolled out through the National Education Information System (NEMIS). There are several challenges that were found in that system; fraud, misuse and double payments made to health institutions arising from a single treatment. If the Senator wants that information, I can provide the names and the institutions. As such, it was found to be unsustainable and the Government resolved to re-consolidate all these special schemes into one, the Social Health Authority (SHA) benefit package. Therefore, the consolidation of the EduAfya scheme with all the schemes that were managed by the defunct NHIF is geared at implementing the right to the highest attainable standards for all Kenyans and further, the right of the child as envisaged under Article 53(1)(c) of the Constitution of Kenya, as read together with Section 16 of the Children's Act; which guarantees that, every child shall have the right to the highest The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Director, Hansard and AudioServices, Senate."

Madam Temporary Speaker, on the last part of the question by the hon. Senator for Nairobi on Mr. Elias Majau M’Imuta, whose son, Master Robin Murimi Majau, a Form 4 student at Kibera Secondary School passed away on 9th September, 2022 - and may his soul rest in peace - the response is this; the comprehensive medical scheme for students in public secondary schools included a group life, the last expense cover in the case of the demise of the student. To access the benefit, the learner’s next of kin was required to fill the last expenses and group life cover claim form, which were available from the school. The duly filed claim form was to be submitted to the Ministry of Education sub-county and county offices, which upon verification, be forwarded to the Ministry of Education Headquarters for second verification, and then forwarded to the defunct NHIF. I would like to state that SHA, in consultation with the Ministry of Education, have gone through the list of the claims submitted during the five-year contract period they had and have not traced the mentioned claim. Also, because I do not want to give benefit to just the Government, on the proposed way forward on this matter, I would like the hon. Senator for Nairobi, Sen. Sifuna, to provide the specific details, including the full name of the student, his NEMIS number, the student's death certificate and burial permit, and the parents’ contact. I will then follow up on the correct guidance on the last expenses claim process with the school and the parents, the next of kin. I will do that and I will bring an answer. I am obligated to do that. Senator, if you provide me with the things I have asked for, then I will---"
