Health financing Challenges High out of pocket spending –denying poor Kenyans access to
health care
- 20% of sick can’t access health due to financial barrier
Inadequate funding from the Government - GoK allocations below the Abuja targets
Heavy reliance on donor funding – sustainability issues- Key priority programmes are over 70% financed by donors
Low population coverage by insurance- Only 10% of Kenyan population have access to a medical cover

payment of benefits Bring more formal sector participation including employer
contributions Include reimbursement of ART and outpatient care for opportunistic
infections within the NHIF cover
Efficient Improvement Redirecting resources to lower level facilities (provide primary care at
cheaper costs) Introducing performance based financing (reduce wastage)
HIV Trust Fund Earmark 1% of government revenue for the Trust Fund Finance 74% of HIV/AIDS financing gap by 2020 Fund to be expanded to cover other priority areas including NCDs
