Health: Myanmar introduced mobile clinics to expand healthcare access to
deprived rural communities
Context
Myanmar's rural population faces several issues inhibiting good health:
•
•
Poor access: As at 2014, -80% of residents in rural areas like Madaya
(250k popn², 2016) reported poor access to healthcare
Poor sanitary practices: Buddhist novices in Yangon have intense
dandruff, sores on their skin and other problems of lack of hygiene
What did Myanmar do?
Myanmar partnered with donors to fund pilot mobile clinic programs:
Association For Healthcare Assistance, which ran monasteries with
mobile clinics for Buddhist novices in Yangon:
Health personnel included 5 doctors, 4 nurses and 65 volunteers
2 trips per month to selected monasteries (~70 trips in total)
Healthcare services include treating wounds, dandruff, washing
robes, cleaning beds and sterilizing monastery compounds
Ooredoo, which introduced mobile clinics in Madaya:
