Kenya's Healthcare Revolution: Millions Enrolled in Affordable SHA Program
Kenya's SHA Program: 23 Million Enrolled, Affordable Healthcare Expanding Kenya's Social Health Authority (SHA) program has achieved remarkable success, enrolling over 23 million Kenyans in just eight months. This initiative, aimed at providing affordable and accessible healthcare, has seen an average of 50,000 new registrations daily. The program is particularly focused on reaching those in the informal sector, who previously faced significant barriers to healthcare access. "This groundbreaking reform is eliminating the burden of mandatory deposits demanded by hospitals, especially during emergencies," stated the speaker in the video. The government's substantial allocation of resources ensures the program's continued success and the provision of primary healthcare services to all registered Kenyans. This achievement represents the highest number of informal sector enrollments in a single year in Kenya's history, demonstrating a significant step towards universal healthcare coverage.
