PEPFAR's annual planning process is done either at the country (COP) or regional level (ROP).
PEPFAR's programs are implemented through implementing partners who apply for funding based on PEPFAR's published Requests for Applications.
Since 2010, PEPFAR COPs have grouped implementing partners according to an organizational type. We have retroactively applied these classifications to earlier years in the database as well.
Also called "Strategic Areas", these are general areas of HIV programming. Each program area has several corresponding budget codes.
Specific areas of HIV programming. Budget Codes are the lowest level of spending data available.
Expenditure Program Areas track general areas of PEPFAR expenditure.
Expenditure Sub-Program Areas track more specific PEPFAR expenditures.
Object classes provide highly specific ways that implementing partners are spending PEPFAR funds on programming.
Cross-cutting attributions are areas of PEPFAR programming that contribute across several program areas. They contain limited indicative information related to aspects such as human resources, health infrastructure, or key populations programming. However, they represent only a small proportion of the total funds that PEPFAR allocates through the COP process. Additionally, they have changed significantly over the years. As such, analysis and interpretation of these data should be approached carefully. Learn more
Beneficiary Expenditure data identify how PEPFAR programming is targeted at reaching different populations.
Sub-Beneficiary Expenditure data highlight more specific populations targeted for HIV prevention and treatment interventions.
PEPFAR sets targets using the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) System - documentation for which can be found on PEPFAR's website at https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. As with most data on this website, the targets here have been extracted from the COP documents. Targets are for the fiscal year following each COP year, such that selecting 2016 will access targets for FY2017. This feature is currently experimental and should be used for exploratory purposes only at present.
Years of mechanism: 2007 2008 2009
AIDSRelief continues to support HIV care and treatment services in both the private and public sector
through its clinical core team composed of an Infectious Disease specialist and a Community
Outreach/Adherence Specialist from IHV, and clinical and counseling staff at the LPTF. In the public sector
AIDSRelief continues to support Bartica Public Hospital, and continues to facilitate linkages with Mazaruni
Prison and complementary HIV services (e.g. PMTCT). Frequent onsite visits are made regularly by both
the AIDSRelief supported HIV physicians. AIDSRelief maintains close contact with the adherence nurse
coordinator in order to discuss any problems that may have arisen.
In the private sector AIDSRelief continues to support St. Joseph Mercy Hospital (SJMH) and Davis
Memorial Hospital, which are both located in Region 4 and are the only faith-based hospitals in Guyana.
AIDSRelief through University of Maryland's Institute of Human Virology (UMSOM-IHV) will continue to build
local HIV technical capacity with increasing attention to pediatric and adolescent HIV treatment, palliative
care and diagnosing and management of opportunistic infections (OIs).
The clinical core team will continue to provide ongoing support and assistance to the LPTFs through
didactics and on-site mentoring, and additionally liaises with USG in-country and MOH partners on technical
issues related to HIV care and treatment. AIDSRelief will provide additional technical assistance in the
areas of psychosocial support, pharmacy support, adherence, laboratory monitoring, strategic information
and financial management.
Enhanced clinical and didactic training will be conducted at UMSOM-IHV's Clinical Training Site. Providers
will have access to video conferencing CME lectures and will also have the opportunity to receive direct
preceptorship in the management of more complicated HIV+ patients. The clinical site will serve as an off
site adjuvant facility to SJMH and DMH. It was serve as a mechanism wherein AIDSRelief can collaborate
with local in-country partners in building local technical capacity and promoting sustainability.
In order to ensure that high quality care is being delivered, AIDSRelief will continue to monitor for unmet
needs in the health care delivery system through the AIDSRelief Continuous Quality Assurance/Quality
Improvement program. This will be implemented with six fundamental components: 1) continuous
observation and measurement of standards of care delivery and program management, 2) measuring
success of treatment outcomes through viral suppression, immune reconstitution, morbidity, mortality, and
lost to follow up over time, 3) linking available patient health information and program characteristics as a
predictor of treatment outcomes, 4) collecting information on adherence to treatment and treatment support,
5) comprehensive and useful feedback of the information, and 6) utilization of outcomes analysis to design
site specific improvement activities. Through this continuous quality improvement plan, sites (with technical
assistance from IHV and Constella Futures) will be able to use data to affect change in the quality of service
provided.
AIDSRelief will also continue to augment capacity and services at its LPTFs and strengthen linkages with
complementary services (i.e. home based care, nutritional support, family planning services) in order to
provide greater access to care and treatment services.
Targets:
•3 service outlets providing antiretroviral therapy.
•273 individuals newly initiating antiretroviral therapy during the reporting period
•1200 individual who ever received antiretroviral therapy by the end of the reporting period
•1020 individuals receiving antiretroviral therapy at the end of the reporting period
•60 health workers trained to deliver ART services according to national and/or international standards.
