Savings in stand-alone post-retirement medical funds grew nearly seven-fold last year, signalling growing efforts by employees to cushion themselves against the negative impact of rising healthcare costs after retiring.
Fresh data from the Retirement Benefits Authority (RBA) show that contributions to medical funds under Post-Retirement Medical Funds (PRMFs) rose by 646.9 percent to Sh1.86 billion in 2025, up from Sh249.1 million a year earlier.
