SHA Statement on Temporary Suspension of M.P. Shah Hospital

The Social Health Authority (SHA) informs beneficiaries and the public that M.P. Shah Hospital has been temporarily suspended from the SHA panel of contracted healthcare providers, with effect from 23 June 2026, pending the conclusion of investigations. The suspension applies to services under the following Funds:

Primary Healthcare Fund (PHCF);

Social Health Insurance Fund (SHIF);

Emergency, Chronic and Critical Illness Fund (ECCIF);

Public Officers Medical Scheme Fund (POMSF).

To ensure a seamless transition and continuity of care, our beneficiaries already admitted at the facility before the suspension date shall continue receiving care till completion of their current episode of care and discharge.

Beneficiaries requiring new admissions, follow-up treatment or other services during the suspension period are advised to seek care from other SHA-contracted healthcare providers. The current list of contracted facilities is available at www.sha.go.ke and through the Afya Yangu platform.

Beneficiaries who require assistance with continuity of care or referral may contact the SHA through the toll-free number 147.

SHA appreciates the cooperation and understanding of beneficiaries and stakeholders and remains committed to safeguarding access to quality and accountable healthcare services.
