All the major hospitals (MP Shah, Aga Khan, Nairobi, Mater etc) are excluded from the list of hospitals you can get treatment from.

I'm hesitant to recommend this plan.

To me, this is by far much better than the current one i have that restrict me to one hospital. Its well spread to all counties all over Kenya.

Those major hospitals are such swindlers. and by those exclusions i think this product is not targeting the Nairobi middle class.. its going for the lower middle class and lower lower middle class if you ask me..

The exclusion of the so called 'major hospitals' is for a reason. These hospitals would wipe out the entire KShs 200K inpatient limit in a day or two and kick you out of their posh beds.

This is targeted at those who would not mind a less posh place but want care that is better than you may find at Pumwani Maternity Hospital or Mbagathi for instance

Good point @jguru
A joke is told of how one lady whose car was hit in traffic and the airbags flew open,she was not hurt just a bit roughed up but ok, but kept shouting.."Nipelekeni Nairobi hospital"

My take is that if you are not near the major hospitals its a good choice but what if you are ? or need to be referred there for further treatment?
Simplicity is the utmost sophistication.

If you are a member of NHIF, you get better comprehensive in-patient treatment at any of those listed hospitals on that list (and many more), with no limits, at a far cheaper premium (Kes 1920 per year voluntary or Kes 3840 salaried).

What's the point of having LindaJamii and being admitted at Kabarnet District Hospital in the general wards?

Will this iteration work? If I'm not mistaken, product experienced a 'sexy' launch in Nov 2012. And the RELAUNCH implies...

It does not target those who seek treatment at those hospitals you have mentioned.

This is aimed at the masses that seek healthcare kwa mganga, those that self medicate, those that go to government hospitals but have to be queued for several days later coz of the masses.

They will be treated in mission hospitals and other smaller establishments.

For me its a plus.It translates to 1000 per month or 35 bob a day.Its affordable

Love is beautiful and so are those who share it.With Love, Marriage is an amazing event in ones life time, the foundation of joy, happiness and success.
