Maternal health services Maternal health commodities Health facility delivery A dissertation submitted to the School of Public Administration and Management (SOPAM) in partial fulfillment of the requirements for award of the degree of Master of Science in Health Monitoring and Evaluation of Mzumbe University. Background: Introduction of RBF to Africa resulted from increased maternal death and decreased national expenditure on health sector (Africa Progress Panel, 2010). In Tanzania, RBF was introduced in 2015, rolled-out to Urambo district in 2017. This study evaluated the worth of RBF on utilization of maternal health services through paying incentives, improving infrastructure and purchasing commodities to health facilities. Methodology: Quasi experimental evaluation study conducted in Urambo district where multistage sampling was used to select households from RBF facilities as intervention participants and non-RBF facilities as control participants. Baseline data was collected from DHIS 2, associations tested using Chi square (95%) and 0.05 P-value. Results: Institutional delivery cumulated 51% of incentives paid to health staff, implying that staff are motivated to perform duties with high incentives (20,720 Tshs/client) compared to the less paid of IPT 2 (1,240 Tshs/client) that demonstrated a drop of 11.7% after RBF implementation. The availability of 50% of medicines at maternity ward suggested the presence of other funds source. Changes from 0% to 61.3% state of building repair and an increase in availability of power and water sources by 82.9% and 50% respectively suggested improved facility infrastructures. Utilization of services increased for 43.3% in institutional delivery and 9.6% for prenatal visits >12wks were associated with incentives and infrastructure (P-values 0.006, 0.023; 0.001, 0.014). Conclusion and Recommendations: RBF was effective on utilization of maternal health services but limited to prenatal visits >12wks and institutional deliveries with effect size of 0.12 and 0.21 respectively. It is recommended that non-monetary form of incentive should be directed to clients in order to advocate the concept of RBF to the community, and the CHMT should provide technical support to health facility management team and make effort to community health education on the importance of completing four prenatal visits before delivery.
