    (Kabale University, 2023) Ainembabazi, Bleander
    The research study aimed at establishing the effect of accountability on health service delivery in Rukiga District using a case study of Mparo Health Centre IV. The study was guided by the following objectives namely; to find out the level of service delivery of clients at Mparo Health Centre IV in Mparo Town Council, Rukiga District, Uganda, to investigate the challenges faced in accountability at Mparo Health Centre IV in Mparo Town Council, Rukiga District, Uganda and to propose the solutions towards addressing the challenges faced in accountability at Mparo Health Centre IV in Mparo Town Council, Rukiga District. The sample size constituted different groups of people totaling 60 respondents who were both clients of the hospital and employees of the hospital. This helped the researcher to get adequate and accurate results for meaningful study. The researcher employed purposive and simple, random sampling methods because of their ease and appropriateness for the study. From the study findings, it was found that if accountability practices are implemented correctly, good development would be achieved. Similarly, if the accountability practices are not implemented there would be poor service delivery. Some of the respondents failed to disclose some of the information to the interviewer. The researcher had to convince the respondents that the information was for academic purposes. In short, accountability affects the development of Mparo Health Centre IV.
