NHIF CONTRIBUTION

Children NHIF (National Hospital Insurance Fund) is a government initiated contribution made monthly to cater for any expense incurred on hospital admission. The contribution is made in groups of three, each group paying Kshs 160 per month through the authorized government centers. The program has been beneficial to our organization since in case of children admission, the government pays the entire bill invoiced without considering the amount of contribution made. As a home, we have benefited from the program for almost 1 year and the results have been commendable. Once a child joins the program, a membership number and card is issued to enhance easy administration of any arising hospital admission case. The program allows for new entries and exit from our home which are updated automatically in their system. The average amount paid per month from Ntimi home of hope children’s home, for all the branches, has been Kshs. 10,000 which depends on the number of children present during a given month. Below find a sample of the receipts issued by the National Hospital Insurance Fund on payment.
