You can imagine an instance whereby you do not have to come all the way from Kajiado, Marsabit to do some learning in a referral hospital like Kenyatta National Referral and Teaching Hospital.

From the year 2004, they were at 8,000 people. However, because of this system, they were able to reach over 60,000 persons that were ailing. What a difference in terms of service delivery.

• 1 Aug 2019 in Senate: That is okay, Madam Temporary Speaker. We have connectivity in this country. Kenyans can access financial services which rose to 83 per cent because of mobile technology. If we can transact using our mobile phones, why can we not use the connectivity? Why can we not use the network within this country to make it easy for us to access healthcare? I have given examples of Ghana and Rwanda that have done it. We can also do it in this country. People can easily be diagnosed at whatever location. We can have online doctors who can diagnose and prescribe medicine ... view
