Impact Evaluation of Mobile Health Clinics in Northern Nigeria: Access and Outcomes Enhancement in 2003

Mobile health clinics have been deployed in remote areas of northern Nigeria as a means to improve access to healthcare and outcomes for underserved populations. A mixed-methods approach was employed, combining quantitative data from clinic records with qualitative interviews to assess patient satisfaction and clinical efficacy. Mobile health clinics significantly increased access to healthcare services by 35% (95% CI: 28-41%) compared to pre-clinic levels. Patient-reported outcomes improved in areas such as chronic disease management, with a notable increase of 20% (CI: 16-24%). The mobile health clinics demonstrated substantial improvements in both access and patient outcomes. Long-term sustainability strategies should be developed to ensure continued service provision after the initial deployment period. Mobile Health Clinics, Remote Areas, Access, Outcomes Improvement, Northern Nigeria Treatment effect was estimated with logit (pᵢ) =₀+^ Xᵢ, and uncertainty reported using confidence-interval based inference.
