Private hospitals lose case in SHA suspension row
The court upheld the principle that parties must adhere to contractual and statutory dispute mechanisms, reinforcing judicial restraint in reviewing administrative decisions where alternative remedies exist.
The High Court in Nairobi has rejected a case filed by 19 private healthcare facilities, contesting their suspension by the government's Social Health Authority (SHA) over alleged medical insurance fraud and fictitious claims.
The court ruled that the case was moot since the contested 90-day suspension period had already lapsed, rendering the legal challenge ineffective.
