dc.description.abstract In order to solve the issue of drug stock-outs in the nation, this thesis examines the role of artificial intelligence (AI) in the procurement and distribution of essential drugs by National Medical Stores. The thesis investigates the accessibility of essential medicines in Uganda, concentrating on the public health sector, for which the Ugandan government may be held responsible. The remainder of the paper then identifies gaps in the current National Medical Stores procurement and distribution process and suggests AI-based solutions aimed at enhancing the effectiveness, sustainability, and accountability of the procurement and distribution of essential drugs, all of which will ultimately improve the standard of healthcare services offered to Ugandans. en_US
