The impact of direct health facility financing on MNCH service provision: results from a comparative, before-after study in Pwani Region, Tanzania
The project had limited impacts on MNCH outcomes due to various factors. While the health facility assessment highlighted positive influences on service delivery, significant areas for improvement remain, including referral systems and infrastructure. Operational research findings indicate that the effectiveness of the DHFF could be enhanced by refining its management and governance structures.
