Health facilities, particularly Level 4 hospitals which charge Kenyans for outpatient services, will face repercussions from the government, President William Ruto has warned.

Speaking at State House in Nairobi on Monday August 4, Ruto warned rogue dispensaries and Level 4 health facilities that were still charging Kenyans for outpatient services.

During the meeting, Ruto said that the government is going to take swift action against such rogue hospitals. "I am sending a warning to facilities in our counties that still charge citizens in our dispensaries, health centres, and level four facilities for outpatient services.

Those few who are still charging Kenyans in these government-paid facilities will have themselves to blame, because we will go after them," the president said.
