Community health centers in Senegal have been established to improve access to healthcare services, particularly for rural populations. A Difference-in-Differences approach was employed to assess changes in health risks before and after the implementation of community health centers, controlling for pre-existing trends. The DiD analysis revealed a significant reduction in overall risk levels by 15% post-intervention compared to baseline data. Community health centre systems have shown promise in mitigating healthcare risks in Senegal, with substantial reductions observed post-implementation. Further research should explore the sustainability and scalability of these models across different regions and populations. Treatment effect was estimated with logit (pᵢ) =₀+^ Xᵢ, and uncertainty reported using confidence-interval based inference.
