The announcement was made during a meeting at the Uganda Heart Institute, where representatives from KRC Uganda, healthcare professionals, and government officials gathered to discuss strategies to enhance cardiovascular health awareness and accessibility in remote regions.

The free transport service will cover the entire journey from the Rwenzori region to the Uganda Heart Institute and back, ensuring that families do not bear any financial burden associated with transportation costs.
