Abstract:
Designed to handle health concerns for distant and underprivileged communities, the Health Extension Plan (HEP) is a significant initiative. The structure, objectives, and result of HEP in several rural communities are examined in this study report. The study will find the success elements and program limitations by evaluating the efficiency of this strategy in improving the delivery of healthcare services, increasing health awareness, and providing basic medical treatment. It uses a mixed-methods approach gathering case study qualitative data and quantitative data from health indicators. It also offers recommendations for policy adjustments meant to boost under the HEP the efficiency and efficacy of healthcare delivery in rural regions. The outcomes reveal the efficiency of the distributed health services and community involvement for improved health results and lessened access to health services inequalities.
