NHIF Frequently Asked Questions

I’ve been getting so many questions in the comments that I decided to compile the most frequently asked, get the answer from NHIF staff and list them here. You can also contact NHIF with your queries by calling these toll free line… 0800 720 601, (020) 2723255/56, (020) 2714793/94, (020) 2722527. Kindly go through the list to see if your question has been answered below before leaving a comment.

  1. How long after registration can you access the NHIF services? For the informal sector, you have to wait for 60 days while for the formal sector you only wait for 30 days.
  2. How long does it take for a dependant to access services after being added to the plan? Immediately
  3. How long do Mpesa Payments take to feature in your satement? Between 24 and 48 hrs, but some payments are even instant
  4. What happens if you have not paid for long and you need to resume? You can either pay the backlog and the penalties, or you can just pay the principal amount and wait for 60 days to access the services
  5. What do you do if you cannot remember your NHIF number? Just make a call to NHIF using one of the contact numbers given above and you’ll be sorted. The numbers are toll free. You can also get your number by texting ID **** to 21101 where **** is your ID number and the message you receive will indicate your NHIF membership number.
  6. How do you go about changing your preferred hospital? You can only do this twice an year. What you do is wait for a call for registration for the preffered hospital and visit an NHIF branch to do this. If you have a very solid reason as to why you need to change before a call is made, you can always visit your nearest NHIF branch.
  7. When is the deadline for payments. It is on the 9th of every month.
  8. If I miss the deadline, what are the payments? If your employer misses the deadline, he pays twice the principal. For the informal contributors, you pay the principal plus 50% of the principle. In other words, if you are to pay on, let’s say 12th, instead of paying the normal Ksh. 500 you pay Ksh.750.
  9. How do I get my NHIF Statement Online? This online feature and others are set to be launched in the next few weeks. Keep it here and we’ll keep you posted.
  10. Where do I get additional NHIF infor? Just visit their website at http://www.nhif.or.ke and you’ll be able to get all the latest and some more.
  11. How much will NHIF pay for me when I receive treatment? This depends on the hospital you choose to visit. There are three categories of NHIF Accredited Hospitals and each category has  a different contract with NHIF. Visit the linked post to see which category your hospital falls under and how much NHIF will pay for you.

      You can make a call to NHIF to find out the backlog of your payments and the penalties by dialing one of the numbers listed in the article above.

      Alternatively, you can just pay the principal amount and wait for 60 days to be able to access the NHIF services.

      You will have to register your own. It is compulsory for every employed Kenyan to be an NHIF member. You can put your husband and kids as your dependents as well. Though you can use either of the cards to access treatment, you can not use them both at the same time.

      Hi modern mom, could you kindly explain to me the difference between informal and formal payments

      Reply

      A formal member is every single Kenyan who is employed. It is compulsory for every employed Kenya to be a member of NHIF. Your contributions are subtracted from your salary by your employer and the amount varies depending on how much you earn.

      Informal members are those not employed, but make monthly contributions of sh. 500 on a voluntary basis.

      I hope that clears it.

    Hi Modern Mom, i find your responses very helpful and informed. Now i have a patient who needs to undergo full knee replacement at a cost of 350k at either of PCEA Kikuyu or Tenweeg hospitals. The only surgeon in Tenweeg proceeded on leave till July. Since the patient's hospital of choice is Tenweeg, can she be refered to Kikuyu? and will NHIF pay the full bill?

    Reply
    1. Modern Mom says:
      at

      Yes. Kikuyu orthopedic Hospital is in category B of NHIF approved hospitals. According to NHIF, members admitted under contract Category B (private and mission) hospitals will enjoy full and comprehensive cover but where surgery is required, the contributor may be required to co-pay.

      I hope that answers your question Kip. I wish your patient a full and quick recovery.

    I work as an accountant for a company in Nairobi CBD. The previous accountant had been submitting NHIF payments for the employees via online submission. The problem is that some of the employees names were not matched with their ID numbers’ (keep in mind that the correct names were used except that the IDs did not match some of the names) as a result; some who had contributed did not have their records updated. How can i proceed with this matter to ensure that their NHIF statements are updated with the amounts deducted them?

      You are supposed to make monthly contributions before the 9th of every month is you are an informal member. For formal members, your employer deducts and contributes for you and you do not need to pay more.

      If you start paying now, you will be able to start using your card in 60 days like normal.

      About what happens to your previous contributions, remember that this is an insurance kitty. You are treated when you get sick for free. If you are fortunate enough not to fall sick, your funds are used on someone else who's not as lucky.

      I hope I've answered your question to your satisfaction.

      In your case the employer is the one who's supposed to pay the penalties.

      The only issue is that if he's not been paying then you'll not be able to receive NHIF services in case you get sick.

      For the two months, you needed to pay 750 a month which comes to 1,500. The only part I don't understand is whether when you said two months, this month is included. The reason I ask this is because at date 15, we're already past the 9th day deadline.

      You should get the services immediately but you need to pay the penalties and all the back payments.

      If there's no emergency,I'd suggest you start paying now and access the services in 60 days. But seeing that it's already past 9th, you're already late for last month.

      If your employer misses the deadline, he pays twice the principal. For the informal contributors, you pay the principal plus 50% of the principle. In other words, if you are to pay on, let's say 12th, instead of paying the normal Ksh. 500 you pay Ksh.750

      For the reminder, you can always set a monthly alarm on your phone.

    Hi, I am a student at a local university and I got an internship at a certain company for 3 months. When I went to register for NHIF, since it was a requirement for the internship to be processed, I was advised by an employee of nhif to select the self-employed section since the employment was only for 3 months. However, I recently checked my status and found out that I still have arrears for the last 3 months yet my employer claims to have submitted my contributions. The question is, Am I still supposed to pay yet my employer submitted the premiums?

    you said that if i have been paying my NHIF monthly payment and then skip some months due to financial problems and then want to go on. i read you must pay the principle and wait for 60 days. What if you have been contributing but you have never used NHIF in any hospital will i still be charged that principle?????? or i will just wait for 60 days and then continue please respond because i want to continue to pay as soon as possible.

      Ideal place to check is on your payslip. It's listed under deductions. However, to authenticate that the deductions have been submitted, simplest app that works for me is Jambo Pay. Try it and hope you find it worth.

    I was requesting if possible to try help us on the issue of penalty, for example I pay for my mum and sometimes I forget and remember after time has long passed! Why don’t you put a regulation that allows us to pay for the previous forgotten months at once while making payment for current month i.e if I forgot to pay for February, when paying for April, I should be allowed to pay the total for all those months from February and panalty to start after the 3rd month.
