Moshi. Kilimanjaro Christian Medical Centre (KCMC) in Kilimanjaro Region is set to open a dedicated cardiac treatment unit in 2027, following an investment of over Sh25 billion.
Currently, specialised heart services are available only at Jakaya Kikwete Cardiac Institute (JKCI) in Dar es Salaam, forcing many Northern Zone patients to travel long distances for treatment. The new unit at KCMC will become the second-largest of its kind in the country.
