In the framework of the German Financial Cooperation with Kenya, a Project to support health insurance for poorer informal sector households was developed. The program intends to contribute to improved access to equitable and affordable quality health services for low income informal sector households in selected counties.
The objective of the program is to contribute to establishing equitable access to affordable, quality health care and strengthening the National Health Insurance System through improved access to health insurance for the informal sector.
The Target group are households with informal employment, low, irregular incomes and without health insurance cover in the target counties.
The Project will be implemented in up to 10 counties, which will be selected on the basis of an open call for proposals. The process of the county selection is implemented by a Tender Committee comprising of the National Hospital Insurance Fund (NHIF) and the Ministry of Health (MoH), supported by the consultant to be selected. The consultant will specifically support the MoH in organizing the submission of the call for proposals to the counties and the evaluation of results.
