  • 16 Nov 2022 in Senate: Thank you Mr. Speaker, Sir. I rise to support the Statement by Sen. Mariam Omar on this matter of NHIF. view
  • 16 Nov 2022 in Senate: We have a serious issue with NHIF particularly on the reimbursements to public facilities. I say this having been the immediate former Governor for Uasin Gishu County, that there has been a trend that has been set by NHIF where public hospitals are not reimbursed regularly. The delay can take as long as six months. view
  • 16 Nov 2022 in Senate: The electronic version of the Senate Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the Hansard Editor, Senate. view
  • 16 Nov 2022 in Senate: The reimbursements from NHIF are the funds that sustain these facilities because those are the funds spent within those facilities. There is a serious problem looking at that trend because you will find that there is no inordinate delay in reimbursing private facilities. view
  • 16 Nov 2022 in Senate: Therefore, my Committee is seized of this matter and we are going to look into it. I agree with the Senator for Nandi, Sen. Cherarkey, that the CEO and the NHIF management should appear before our Committee so that we put this matter to rest. It looks like the NHIF is not working in all counties at the moment. view
  • 16 Nov 2022 in Senate: I am also aware that even in the Moi Teaching and Referral Hospital (MTRH) there is a very serious issue of the NHIF. Right now, patients are no longer getting services at MTRH because these NHIF reimbursements are not happening. Indeed, the rollout of the universal healthcare program was done in a hurry. You may recall that even the results of the pilot that was done in four counties were not shared publicly and as such, we could not get the lessons learnt from the rollout of the UHC. view
  • 16 Nov 2022 in Senate: This House must be seized of this matter considering that health is a devolved function. We as Senators should look into the reforms in terms of legislation and the composition of NHIF, so that we the defenders of counties ensure counties have a role and a say in the running of NHIF. view
  • 16 Nov 2022 in Senate: I support the Statement by Sen. Mariam Omar and say that our Committee is seized of this matter and other matters raised by the Marsabit Senator and many other Senators who have raised issues concerning NHIF. I thank you. view
  • 16 Nov 2022 in Senate: Thank you, Madam Temporary Speaker. I rise to support the Statement by Sen. Madzayo on this matter of demolitions. view
  • 16 Nov 2022 in Senate: The problem we are facing as a nation is the issuance of title deeds and leases, without respecting the laid down procedures and rules for issuing leases. This is particularly on property whose leases have expired. County governments need to be involved in the issuance of leases. What happens is that some unscrupulous people, through some unscrupulous officers in the Ministry of Lands, have been issuing leases and title deeds for lands with expired leases. At the same time, those lands are occupied by the owners who have been there. view
