" } --- Rural clinics in Uganda are evaluated using panel data from to measure their effectiveness in improving health outcomes. A mixed-methods approach, including quantitative analysis and qualitative interviews, was employed. The study employs a fixed-effects regression model to analyse the relationship between clinic resources and clinical outcomes. Key findings indicate that an increase in resource allocation is significantly associated with better health outcomes (fixed-effects coefficient: 0. 5; 95\% confidence interval 0. 3, 0. 7). This research contributes by providing a validated method for assessing the impact of resource investment on
