Nelson Amenya has brought to light the alleged corruption and inefficiency within Jayesh Saini’s healthcare network, particularly MAKL and Bliss Healthcare, which stand accused of providing substandard health insurance to teachers.
Rather than addressing these issues, Jayesh is said to have employed bloggers to whitewash his companies’ image, deflecting blame and masking the plight of thousands of teachers under his care.
It is perplexing how someone so ineffective can oversee billions earmarked for healthcare. With 161 billion shillings at stake, why not allocate a fraction to hire skilled professionals instead of spreading propaganda while teachers endure suffering?
The conditions under MAKL are alarming. Teachers, many battling chronic illnesses such as diabetes and hypertension, face barriers to obtaining proper medical care. The insurance coverage is so insufficient that they cannot afford consultations, diagnostic tests, or medications at private hospitals.
Instead of receiving adequate treatment, they are provided with the least expensive drugs, which often fail to manage their conditions effectively.
The resulting hardship is immense, and numerous lives have been lost due to systemic failures.
Nelson Amenya has pointed out that MAKL frequently denies admissions unless pressured, such as by threats of strikes. Even for critical procedures, teachers must plead for approval. Patients with diabetes or hypertension are given medication for only two weeks, making it nearly impossible to control their conditions.
Additionally, they are restricted to hospital visits once every 48 hours, a policy that is entirely unsuitable for chronic illnesses requiring regular monitoring.
Compounding the issue, MAKL has assumed control over discharge decisions, preventing hospitals from releasing patients without its approval. This interference endangers lives, as patients needing observation are discharged prematurely due to financial constraints, while others are detained unnecessarily to inflate costs.
This system appears designed not to aid teachers but to exploit them, benefiting Jayesh Saini and his associates at their expense.
Nelson Amenya’s revelations demand urgent attention. Teachers are entitled to better healthcare, not a system that views them as burdens. The billions allocated for their medical coverage should be used to deliver quality services, not to enrich individuals like Jayesh Saini.
