Senator Aaron Cheruiyot lauded the positive impact of the Social Health Authority (SHA) on hospital finances, highlighting its success in resolving unpaid bills that plagued the former NHIF system.

• The Social Health Authority (SHA) has significantly improved hospital reimbursements, preventing facilities like Tenwek Mission Hospital from accumulating substantial unpaid bills, a problem that previously led to the retention of patient documents.
• Senate Majority Leader and Kericho Senator Aaron Cheruiyot cited the financial stability brought by SHA, enabling hospitals to expand services, such as Tenwek Mission Hospital opening a new clinic in Nairobi.
• Cheruiyot urged greater public acknowledgment of the reforms, stating that millions of Kenyans are now accessing healthcare services through SHA, and criticized what he called "selective opposition" to the new health financing model.
