All intern doctors (medical officers, dentists, and pharmacists) over 1800 of them, will be compensated according to the CBA, with an average earning of 206K.
Other interns will be remunerated based on their respective schemes of services.
Our primary objective has been to uphold the integrity of the CBAs, ensure the dignity of intern doctors, and foster a motivated healthcare workforce for the benefit of patients.
Previous Cabinet Secretaries engaged in unhelpful tactics with us hence endless demonstrations and strikes. However, Hon @HonAdenDuale has delivered for both Kenyans and healthcare workers. We should always commend GOOD WORK and GOOD LEADERSHIP.
This is a betrayal of every Kenyan who depends on public healthcare. The government has made its priorities clear—billions more for MPs while slashing the health budget, the most reduced sector in the 2025/26 Budget Policy Statement.
Hospitals are running out of essential supplies, doctors and nurses are overworked and underpaid, and Kenyans are suffering in a crumbling healthcare system. Yet, instead of fixing this crisis, our leaders choose to enrich themselves.
At the same time, Collective Bargaining Agreements (CBAs) are being mutilated and blatantly disrespected. Agreements meant to guarantee fair pay, better working conditions, and dignity for healthcare workers are tossed aside, while politicians ensure their benefits are untouched.
How can we provide quality care when salaries are delayed, facilities are understaffed, CBAs are ignored, and medics are forced to work in deplorable conditions? Healthcare is not a privilege—it is a fundamental right!
We demand full funding for our healthcare system and respect for the CBAs that protect our workforce.
💉Internship is a RIGHT, not a privilege.
The government is legally OBLIGATED to place medical interns.
But instead?
They play PR games, lie to the public, and tell doctors to "wait."
Meanwhile, MOH officials are swimming in stolen cash.

@DeboraBarasa your incompetence is deafening. Medical interns are unposted and unpaid, SHA is a mess, your ministry is plaqued by scandals. Are you in charge or are you a political crony? If you are in control, is this the best you can offer?
#18thNaMulongo it’s a date 🤝
Doctors are striking because they care about your healthcare.
MOH is lying to you because they care about their bank accounts.
🚨Doctors are fighting for you.
🚨MOH is fighting to keep stealing from you.
