Healthcare infrastructure and services in Marib, Yemen, are undergoing expansion through international aid and local initiatives. Efforts to strengthen medical capacity include assessments by the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) to address needs at Marib General Hospital, the Military Hospital, and Kary General Hospital, driven by pressures from regional instability.

Local developments include the opening of the Dr. Hussein al-Wutairi Center for Orthodontics and Dental Implants to provide specialized dental care. Additionally, a water service project at Marib General Hospital, funded by the King Salman Humanitarian Aid and Relief Centre (KSrelief), was inaugurated. This project involves drilling new wells, constructing a concrete tower tank, and installing solar energy systems and a desalination plant to provide sustainable water for over 24,760 beneficiaries.
