NHIF is a parastatal institute established in 1966.

The main mandate of the parapublic organization is to provide affordable, accessible and sustainable health insurance to everyone.
It is mandatory that all employers are members of NHIF.

Those in the non-working or unemployed sector can also register with the parastatal and will be required to pay Ksh 500 per month.

Registration as an NHIF member can be done online through the NHIF Self Care Portal, an online platform that provides easy access to all the services offered by the parastatal.

If the access to the card is lost or damaged, you can easily replace it by visiting any NHIF office or Huduma Center.
