It is time we had the elephant 🐘 in the room conversation. How can we end this??? Have you experienced this? Did the 'system' come through for you? Or did it fail you? Did your community come through for you? Or did it fail you? What should we do differently?

Dr. Kamunyo, NHIF CEO: We have noticed that voluntary members are not consistent in their contributions. 'Out of 10.1 million NHIF members, only 5 million are active. Some Kenyans join NHIF at the time of need, when hospitalised.' #NMGLeadershipForum @SmritiVidyarthi @nhifkenya

We acknowledges gains made through collaborative efforts in the bid to combat covid-19 and appreciates that Kenyans are incrementally noting that the disease is with us. This is a situation that requires all of us to walk together, each of us taking responsibility for the other
