Mobile money platforms have been increasingly adopted in various settings to facilitate financial transactions and services, including healthcare access where traditional infrastructure is lacking. The study employed a mixed-method approach combining quantitative surveys with qualitative interviews to assess changes in healthcare access and service uptake post-intervention. A significant increase (p < 0. 05) of 20% was observed in the proportion of villagers who accessed healthcare services through mobile money platforms compared to baseline levels. The findings suggest that mobile money platforms can effectively enhance healthcare access in off-grid areas, with a notable improvement in service utilization rates. Further studies should explore scalability and sustainability of these interventions across different regions and cultural contexts.
