Affordable healthcare is crucial as it ensures everyone has access to quality medical services without undergoing financial hardship.
Despite the government’s efforts to ensure Kenyans have access to affordable healthcare, millions of them still can’t afford quality medical services due to financial constraints.
To address this, various organizations have rolled out products where customers can make monthly contributions to ensure they are covered in case of unfortunate events.
A good example of such a product is the Timiza insurance cover by Timiza, a digital bank introduced by Absa Bank as a mobile-only banking platform.
The product allows both Absa and non-Absa customers to access personal accident cover of Sh100,000 and funeral cover of Sh50,000 at only Sh42 per month, making it one of the cheapest insurance facilities in Kenya.
