Matching Health Insurance Premiums with the Age Profiles of Family Members to be Covered by Cigna Africa in 2019

Unasi Insurance Agency, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Unashig Kenya PLC, has prepared a table for Unashig Members which matches the age of each household member, as so far reported by 113 Unashig Members, with age-specific premium calculations subsequently made for us by Cigna Africa. It is available at the link below.

To arrive at your family's/household's aggregate premium, simply add the premiums calculated (by age) for each family member, as further elaborated on the said table. The table should help 113 Unashig Members (we are a much larger family group comprising 600+ households) who have not yet furnished family details to see how much premium they would pay if they joined ahead of the formal launch of the cover.

It is important to note that EACH family member covered will be separately entitled to a year's health insurance cover of UP TO US$ 50,000 (or approximately KES 5,000,000/-). Thus, for example, an M+1 family will be covered for a total benefit limit of KES 10,000,000/-, while an M+4 family will be covered for a combined total of KES 25,000,000/- (that is, KES 5m x 5).

[You may need to open the table with Google Sheets in order to see it more fully]


There is still room to join the group fronted by Unasi Insurance Agency. Send your request for further details to unasi254ag@gmail.com

Draft Contract for Comprehensive NHIF Cover for UNASHIG Members ~ 2018-2019


As reported to UNASHIG Members and prospective Members
via WhatsApp earlier this evening, I'm happy to report that I received the Draft Contract at NHIF HQ this afternoon at around 4:30 PM. And I'm pleased to avail a copy for close scrutiny by all of you, fellow Dons, who have expressed an interest in this 'self-funded' Group Medical Cover idea; and who have waited so patiently, and with so much frustration (to boot), for almost a year. Seeing, I guess, is in the end the best kind of believing, after all.


I've had a cursory look at the draft since I received it. I see nothing in it that cannot be corrected or clarified prior to circulation to members of the final copy -- ahead of the signing ceremony. But there are matters that will have to be corrected and clarified. Let's hear what you think -- about any aspect of this draft.

There are four items in the draft that I'd like to comment on myself, right away:

1. It suggests an age limit of  60-65 years, though we had agreed that there would be no such limit. I believe that this must and WILL be corrected.
2. It implies a 'lump sum' payment of the annual premium, even though we were told that the CEO had already approved our three 
premium payment options. This, too, will be corrected -- I do believe.

3. The benefits and limits previously reported remain intact, as you will see. So does the average monthly premium per Member + (up to) 3 dependents.

4. It is envisaged that we will start off with 570 UNASHIG Members (NOT Employees, as wrongly indicated in the draft). This is of course lower than the initial, and challenging, target of 700 Members we've been working toward. The dampened enthusiasm caused by the long delay will need time to recover.
