In Tanzania, rehabilitation services covered under health care primarily focus on essential interventions to improve functionality and reduce disability, as part of the Universal Health Coverage (UHC) initiatives detailed in the Universal Health Coverage Bill of 2022.
These services include physiotherapy, occupational therapy, speech and language therapy, psychological therapy, prosthetics and orthotics, cardiac rehabilitation, and community-based rehabilitation.
The National Health Insurance Fund (NHIF) and the Community Health Fund (CHF) are the main public health insurance schemes covering these services. The Tanzanian government is enhancing these services through policies to ensure broader access and integration into the healthcare system​
