Abstract
2013 Kenya Household Health Expenditure and Utilisation Survey (2013 KHHEUS) is a national and county representative sample survey. The survey explored the health-seeking behaviour, use of healthcare services, out-of-pocket health spending, and health insurance coverage of Kenyan households. The Kenya Ministry of Health (MoH), with support from the USAID-funded Health Policy Project and in conjunction with the Kenya National Bureau of Statistics (KNBS), conducted the 2013 KHHEUS to provide critical evidence to inform the development of the new health financing strategy. Survey findings will also inform policy decisions related to the future universal health coverage and the National Hospital Insurance Fund. The 2013 KHHEUS also provides information that supports the wider national health accounts estimation process.

Sampling

Sampling Procedure
The 2013 KHHEUS sampling strategy was designed to generate national and county estimates for all survey areas. The National Sample Survey and Evaluation Programme (NASSEP) master sample, which was developed using a multistage sampling design and maintained by KNBS,was used to select the representative clusters and households. Using the master sample, a total of 33,675 households were drawn from 1,347 selected clusters and divided into 814 (60%) rural and 533 (40%) urban clusters.

This sample was constructed to allow for estimates of key indicators at national and county levels for each of the 44 counties (covered by the survey), as well as for urban and rural domains. At the time of the survey, the KNBS had not updated the NASSEP master frame to include Mandera, Wajir, and Garissa counties, so these counties were not included in the survey.
