Kenya Launches Health Reform to Reduce Maternal and Infant Deaths

Kenya is implementing sustained, wholesome health reform and delivery of services aimed at curbing maternal and neo-natal mortality, according to President William Ruto. The government has restructured Kenya’s health financing framework to expand pre-paid access to maternal care through the newly established Social Health Authority.

The government has facilitated direct coverage for 50,000 vulnerable adolescent mothers. This coverage guarantees access to ante-natal, safe delivery, and post-natal services.
