This is a list of hospitals in Tanzania.

Tanzania is the largest and second-most populous country in East Africa with a population of nearly 62 million people according to the 2022 National Bureau of Statistics National Census.[1] It is a sparsely populated country with a geographically wide distribution of settlements hence presenting a challenge regarding access to hospitals. There are 31 administrative regions in the country and the list of hospitals will be grouped by regions.

The healthcare system is arranged in a hierarchical structure and the administrative structure is related to the running of the equivalent level of the health facility and where the first line health facility is the dispensary to be built in every village and health center to be built in every ward as is written in The Primary Health Care Development Program (2007–2017).[1][2] Higher up in the ranking are the district hospitals, regional referral hospitals, zonal referral hospitals and national hospitals. There are some specialized hospitals e.g. the Ocean Road Cancer Institute and Mirembe Psychiatric Hospital.

According to the Health Facilities Register, maintained by the Ministry of Health, Community Development, Gender, Elderly and Children there were 8,497 medical care facilities in the country, 62% of them public. As of 2020, there are 337 hospitals listed in the register.[3]
