Uasin Gishu places its best foot forward to attain UHC

Even as the National Government pilots the roll-out of Universal Health Coverage (UHC) Uasin Gishu County Government has placed her best foot forward in the rollout of the scheme.

The County Executive in charge of Health Mrs. Everlyn Rotich said that the department is working for the successful rollout of UHC as is currently piloted in Tapsagoi Ward, Turbo Sub County.

Speaking this morning at a stakeholder's meeting with Ampath currently piloting UG Zuri Health the CEC said that they are working hard to put systems in order for the successful attainment of universal Health coverage adding that all the facilities are able to offer the services at the doorstep of members of the public.

Mrs. Rotich further disclosed that for a successful rollout of the scheme, the department must invest heavily in electronic record management, which is key.

“We are calling for mass registration of the total population in the County. We are also working hard to ensure that we up our game in all the facilities to make sure that those who choose our facilities are served appropriately." Said the departmental head.

“Since the inception of devolution, there has been tremendous progress from renovation, equipping of our facilities, staffing and availability of drugs and other commodities." Added Mrs. Rotich.

During the meeting, the partners led by Dr. Jeremiah Laktabai presented their findings that indicated a number of households lack vital documents such as marriage and birth certificates for their children to enable their spouses and children to be included in the cover.

“The findings in our disposal indicates that other households default in remittance of the monthly charges for the national scheme, the NHIF." Said Ampath representative.

UHC is focusing on three areas, The Economic Empowerment, Service Delivery and Health Insurance. This is being achieved by carrying out the door to door enrollment and screening in the process.

The department and the partner AMPATH have constituted a technical working group to ensure a smooth rollout and implementation of UHC in Uasin Gishu County. ... See MoreSee Less
