Multilevel regression models reveal efficiency disparities in community health centres, suggesting targeted improvements are needed.

This research aims to evaluate the operational efficiency of community health centres in South Africa using multilevel regression analysis.
Employs multilevel regression models to analyze efficiency data across regions
Considers both within-centre variability and regional differences
Utilizes data from underserved populations in urban and rural areas
Significant disparities in service efficiency were observed across different regions
Centres achieved up to 15% efficiency gains when contextual factors were considered
Highlights the importance of multilevel regression models in identifying regional disparities

Dlamini et al. (2009) studied this question.
