I'm so against this thing! Can they force me to pay it?
This is just a bad idea. You can get a very good medical cover for 24k per annum than lining up on a stretcher at KNH. It should be made voluntary!

This to me is an obvious avenue for corruption. What's easier stealing insurance money? If pension money which is refundable at some day is easily stolen what of insurance money which expires almost as soon?

BBI will solve it

For me this is daylight robbery !

NHIF should clearly show the extra services i will enjoy by paying an extra Ksh 1,680.

How did they arrive at Ksh 2,000 and not Ksh 5,000 or even 1,000 ?

Wish there was a way i could avoid paying this.

Has COTU filed an appeal ?

Hii Kenya yetu tuko na sida

They are so quick to say when the deduction should start,bt silence on when i should start enjoying the service.

who is there to stand up for kenyans, and mpigs will be going round giving us lies,yet noone can address this.

Huyu mchamaaa wa KOTU ama inaitwa aje,amepewa nini? ameenda underground on this,hata kwa news,he is nowhere to be found.

Never count on making a good sale. Have the purchase price be so attractive that even a mediocre sale gives good returns.

You are right. This maybe a quick route to wealth for some guys.

The amounts are just too huge. I am annoyed at the lack of any major benefit accruing to the contributors to this scheme.

Will we then have free health care for all?

P.S. if I'm self-employed but make less than 12K per month, what amount am I supposed to remit?


If you are self employed, you pay 500/=irrespective of what you make per month


Very interesting. To me it seems these guys who come up with the formulas try and evade the most convenient methods. Say if they were to like put a structure where a certain contribution for those who are self employed will give you access more services etc...then there would be less public outcry.
Then for those in formal employment these amounts they are proposing should have been gradual say over a period of 5 years to cushion both the employer and the employee. Is it really that hard?
