Health insurance in Kenya: A financial and health diaries dataset 2019-2021

Dataset / Software

Description

This dataset was collected to evaluate the impact of the i-PUSH program, a digital health insurance program for low-income women and their family members in Western Kenya. i-PUSH was implemented by PharmAccess Foundation and Amref Health Africa. The evaluation was based on a randomized controlled trial (RCT) in 24 villages in Kakamega county from 2019 until 2021. Data include baseline, midline and endline household surveys; weekly financial and health diaries data; monthly/quarterly modules on food consumption, pregnancy, and mental health; and behavioral games to measure risk preferences, willingness-to-pay for health insurance and women's empowerment. In parallel to the RCT study in Kakamega, we collected similar data in Kisumu county, where the government was piloting universal health coverage, from 2019 until 2020 (baseline to midline).
