• 20 Feb 2019 in National Assembly: My friend, Hon. Mohamed, will come up with a Bill. I want to propose what should be done when a person dies at a Government hospital, both at the national referral hospital and county referral hospitals. Government pays money for maternity both at the national referral hospitals and even at the county hospitals. They pay county governments for maternity.

That letter can be used at the hospital to discharge the body. It can then claim money just the way county governments do it from the national Government for free maternity deliveries. view
