Concurrently, an ongoing healthcare fraud investigation involving the SHA and the Kenya Medical Practitioners and Dentists Council (KMPDC) has resulted in the arrest of five individuals. In one case, a Vihiga health center is implicated in a fraudulent payment scheme for claiming Ksh 4.9 million instead of a legitimate Ksh 18,000.
