Medical institutions must submit claims directly to SHA rather than demanding payment from patients for covered services and medications. Ruto launched the National Equipment Service Project during ceremonies at State House, Nairobi, replacing the outdated Medical Equipment Scheme with modern infrastructure upgrades. Private sector partners will handle installation, maintenance, and servicing costs through a Fee-for-Service arrangement that eliminates government financial burdens. The initiative has already provided over 60,000 medical procedures across 29 facilities since June 2025, with...

Current visa holders retain their travel privileges.
Zimbabwe demonstrates a 10.57 percent overstay rate for business and tourism visas, affecting approximately 709 individuals. Student visa infractions also contributed to the decision. The suspension stems partly from Zimbabwe's refusal to establish a safe third country agreement that would permit the US to return asylum seekers. Only Eswatini, Rwanda, and South...
