Funeral Services Boss: Kenyans are not investing in last expense covers

Ezra Olack chairman of Funeral Services Association of Kenya (FUSAK) is calling on the National Hospital Insurance Fund (NHIF) to introduce a Last Expense cover to cushion Kenyans from funeral expenses.

Such a product, he says, will relieve those bereaved from fundraisings that are now commonplace. A number of insurances in Kenya have this cover on their products. The cover helps families deal with the burden of meeting the last respect expenses following the death of a family member.
