A Kakamega County hospital director has been charged with defrauding the Social Health Authority of Ksh2.5M through alleged fake medical claims.

According to the DCI, he’s accused of altering documents, fabricating records, and submitting claims for services his facility wasn’t authorised to provide, including inpatient and maternal care.

He denied all charges in court.

His lawyer argued that he isn’t a flight risk and raised health concerns,
saying he’s diabetic and may not get proper care in custody.

The court has ordered a bail report, with a ruling expected on Monday. For now, he remains remanded at Industrial Area Prison.

This case is part of a wider nationwide crackdown on SHA fraud, where investigators have flagged fake records, inflated billing, upcoding, double charging, and even claims for “phantom patients.”

Over 40 facilities have been suspended, and several medics have been locked out of the SHA platform.

The Health Ministry and DCI warn that anyone found exploiting the system will face prosecution as the government rolls out stricter audits and biometric checks to protect Kenya’s universal healthcare scheme.
