MPs to improve their retirement medical insurance coverage

MPs’ retirement medical coverage to be improved. MPs are seeking to improve their medical insurance to enable them to enjoy benefits after retirement.

Kenya Members of Parliament (MPs) are currently advocating for enhancements in their medical insurance policies to ensure coverage continues after they retire.

This initiative has been highlighted in various social media platforms, where netizens express concerns and opinions about the MPs’ intentions.

Netizens suggest that this move is seen by the public as MPs seeking special treatment or benefits, especially when compared to the general populace’s experience with healthcare systems like the Social Health Insurance Fund (SHIF) or Social Health Authority (SHA).

The MP’s current discussions on their healthcare approach indicate a sentiment of scepticism among some Kenyans, questioning the need for such improvements when the existing public health systems are already in place.

This reflects broader concerns about transparency, equity in healthcare provision, and the responsibilities of elected officials towards the welfare of their constituents.

People on social media had to react to the new MPs health insurance policy.

“MPs are seeking to improve their medical insurance to enable them to enjoy the benefits even after retirement. “

“These are the same people who are forcing you to use SHA, claiming it is working. Why then do they need to have a’special’ cover for themselves if SHIF/SHA is working?”

“MPs scheme for lifetime medical coverage after retirement. This June, they’ll band together to push a punishing Finance Bill to overtax struggling Kenyans. Dissolve Parliament now!” netizens debate online.
