The Health Cabinet Secretary, Aden Duale, has affirmed that the government will not backstep in the crackdown against hospitals abusing Social Health Authority (SHA) funds, a day after the World Bank called for adjustments to the medical scheme.
In a report released on Tuesday, May 27, the World Bank called for a review of both the rollout and the approach to funding the programme.
Duale, who spoke during a press briefing on Wednesday, May 28, asserted that the regulatory authorities led by the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Council (KMPDC) will continue to weed out noncompliant and fraudulent health facilities and workers to streamline the medical scheme.
The health boss claimed that on Saturday, June 14, he will expose the names of all previously contracted under the former National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF) who are implicated in fraudulent activities through a list he dubbed "the list of shame".
