Audit flags drugs distributed to hospitals without proof of tests
without documented evidence that the legally required testing had been carried out, there is no official confirmation that the distributed medicines complied with statutory quality requirements
An audit has revealed that medical drugs were distributed to public hospitals without proof of mandatory quality testing in the financial year ending June 2025, marking a second successive year of such uncertainty.
The Office of the Auditor-General said that medical drugs worth Sh86.6 million were circulated to public hospitals without proof of quality testing in the period under review, an escalation from the previous year when consignments worth Sh49.6million were flagged for a similar anomaly.
