The study used cross-sectional survey research design and quantitative approach. A survey was conducted by using 360 structured close-ended questionnaires distributed equally to community-based health insurance adopters and non adopters in the district.

From quantitative data analysis descriptive statistics and logistic regression statistical tools were used to examine the determinant of uptake in community based health insurance. Linear regression statistical tools were used to examine the effect of uptake in community based health insurance on household health expenditure. The findings of the study indicate that marketing strategy, quality of healthcare, and demographic factors determine uptake in community based health insurance. The findings also show uptake in community based health insurance negatively affects household health expenditure.
