County governments are still willing to negotiate with the doctors even as the officials serve their one-month jail term for contempt of court.
Council of Governors (CoG) Chairman Peter Munya also urged the jailed officials to purge the contempt by ending the strike.
"County governments remain committed to a negotiated settlement in good faith by all parties. We continue to urge the striking doctors to end the on-going strike and bring to an end the suffering of ordinary Kenyans who cannot access medical services in private facilities," said Mr Munya.
He added: "We believe in the constitutionalism and the rule of law, which the doctors' union has ignored." He accused the medics of refusing to negotiate and only insisting on the CBA.
