The Social Health Authority (SHA) has refuted claims that a list of payments to hospitals went missing and that it disabled the Kenya Master Facility Registry. This comes after the payment records and the registry became inaccessible on Monday, August 25, amidst allegations of massive fraud within the authority.

• Health Cabinet Secretary Aden Duale exposed widespread fraud at SHA, with Ksh10.6 billion in claims rejected due to fraudulent activities or non-compliance.
• Total claims submitted under the Social Health Insurance Fund (SHIF) reached Ksh82.7 billion, with Ksh53 billion already paid out.
• The Kenya Master Health Facility Registry (KMHFR), crucial for verifying hospital details and tracking payments, was reportedly down, coinciding with the fraud allegations.
