The Ministry of Health and Social Services has been allocated N$12.3 billion for the 2025/26 financial year, with a total of N$37.5 billion set aside over the Medium-Term Expenditure Framework (MTEF) period.

As part of this allocation, N$780 million has been designated for health infrastructure development in the upcoming financial year, with a total of N$2.7 billion committed over the MTEF period.

This investment aims to expand healthcare facilities nationwide, reduce congestion in state hospitals and enhance the overall quality of healthcare services.
