Rural clinics in Tanzania face challenges in providing consistent quality healthcare services due to limited resources and staff training. Data from 100 rural clinics over two years were analysed using a fixed effects regression model. Uncertainty was addressed with robust standard errors. Clinics in remote areas had poorer patient recovery rates compared to those closer to urban centers (65% vs. 78%, p < 0. 01). The panel data approach highlights regional disparities affecting rural healthcare quality, necessitating targeted interventions. Investment in infrastructure and training for remote clinics is recommended to improve patient outcomes. Rural Clinics, Tanzania, Panel Data, Clinical Outcomes, Fixed Effects Model Treatment effect was estimated with logit (pᵢ) =₀+^ Xᵢ, and uncertainty reported using confidence-interval based inference.
