Medical Services Principal Secretary Harry Kimtai has assured the public that the Safaricom-led consortium, awarded a Sh104 billion contract to provide technology for the Social Health Insurance Fund (SHIF), underwent thorough vetting before being approved by the government.
The consortium, which includes Apeiro Limited and Konvergenz Network Solutions Ltd, will implement the Integrated Healthcare Information Technology System (IHITS), a key infrastructure for SHIF, which will replace the National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF).
