The office of the Auditor General has highlighted five ways the government contravened the law when setting up the Social Health Authority system.
This is according to a report filed by the Auditor General Nancy Gathungu, on state organs for the year 2023-2024.
In her report, Gathungu has listed unbudgeted and non-competitive procurement, undefined scope of works, lack of agreements on payments, and unfavorable contract clauses as some of the shortcomings of SHA. "The State Department procured the Healthcare Information Technology Digitization system of Sh104 billion.
However, a review of tender documents, contract agreement, and financial proposal indicated the following unsatisfactory matters," Gathungu's report reads in part.
