October 1, 2024, could have been a day of celebration for Elijah Wachira, had everything turned out as hoped.
It was a Tuesday, and Mr Wachira, the Social Health Authority (SHA) acting chief executive officer (CEO) and his team, may have perhaps ended the day with feet up, a drink at hand, and a toast to a new public insurer with an ambitious promise to end crowdfunding for medical bills, or selling of family land or cows to buy medicines for loved ones.
