A1: The National Equipment Service Program (NESP) is designed to ensure continuous access to medical equipment in county health facilities across Kenya. Launched after the expiration of the Medical Equipment Service (MES) program in December 2023, NESP builds on the successes of MES. Under this program, vendors are responsible for providing, maintaining, and upgrading equipment at no upfront cost to counties, with payments made based on services rendered under the Fee-for-Service (FFS) model.
