The Kenyatta National Hospital (KNH) has released new admission guidelines for patients under the Social Health Authority (SHA). Effective immediately, proper referencing is required for inpatient admissions.

• SHA will not cover inpatient costs without a valid admission reference at entry.
• Patients must present a valid national identification card linked to an active SHA membership.
• Patients are required to get a reference number from SHA and ensure their Social Health Insurance Fund (SHIF) status is active.
