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: 2010 2011 2012 2013 2014
1. Goals:
The CDC Foundation provides technical assistance (TA) and mobile technology solutions (mHealth) to the GoKs Ministries of Health (MoH) by working with implementing and technology partners via PPPs aiming at more efficient health information systems (HIS) with wide access. mHealth activities will enable timely, secure transfer and access of programmatic, logistical, surveillance and other data to improve health services and outcomes.
In line with the countrys HIS related MDGs, MoH HIS policy document and gap analyses, the objectives of the CDC Foundation activities include:
-
Provide TA, logistical support, and capacity-building to leadership, coordination and governance of HIS activities for the GoK and partners.
Provide TA, logistical support, and solutions towards a national unique persons identification.
Support the development of an interoperability solution among mHealth systems and other national HIS.
Support the development of generic text messages to be used in health commodities tracking, early infant diagnostics, staff supervision, blood safety, and other systems identified by MoH.
Support the development of national mHealth systems as identified by the MoH.
2. Cost-efficiency strategy:
Build generic systems owned by the GoK to avoid silo systems and duplication of resources and efforts and develop local capacity to avoid foreign and expensive ventures in development/maintenance of solutions.
3. Transition to country partners:
Logistical support to be absorbed within existing GoK governance structures and capacity of MoH and stakeholders built to sustain the systems beyond the life of the project.
No PEPFAR funds have been or will be used in FY12 for vehicle purchase. This activity support GHI/LLC.
Goals and objectives:
The CDC Foundation provides technical assistance (TA) and mobile technology solutions (mHealth) to the GoKs Ministries of Health (MoH) by working with implementing partners and technology partners via public private partnerships (PPP) aiming at more efficient health information systems (HIS) with wide access. mHealth activities will enable timely and secure transfer and access of programmatic, logistical, surveillance and other health related data so as to improve health services and health outcomes.
In line with the countries HIS related MDGs, MoH HIS Policy document and gap analysis discussions with the HIS Division of the MoH, the objectives of the CDC Foundation activities include:
Provide TA, logistical support, and capacity building to leadership, coordination and governance of HIS activities for the GoK and partners via scheduled committee meetings and mentorship.
Provide TA, logistical support, and solutions towards a national unique persons identification (NUPI).
Support the development of a generic short message service (SMS) solution to be used in health commodities tracking, early infant diagnostics, staff supervision, blood safety, and other systems identified by MoH and test the use of innovative mHealth technologies to meet the national HIS goals.
Narrative is only 3500 characters (including spaces): see page 32 in the COP 2013 Appendices for detailed guidance and questions that need to be addressed.
Note: Each budget coded funded must have a completed narrative (please add additional space to complete this section as necessary).
This continuing mechanism includes a new budget code HVOP that has been introduced in COP 13 following ITT planning meetings.
HIV prevention interventions for key populations are highly effective in responding to the HIV/AIDS pandemic. Female sex workers (FSW) and their clients contribute to 14.1% of Kenyas new HIV infections (MOT 2008), and as such systems that strengthen programs for FSWs should be initiated. The nature of FSWs work requires high mobility, connecting across Kenyas major town, and often makes rapid decisions whenever they sense opportunities. In order to create services that respond to the needs of FSWs, it is important that a centralized electronic system be established that allows them to access services across the different locations where key population services are available to the public.
This mechanism entails the development of a central database at NASCOP to hold identification information for FSW and their longitudinal health service provision data. Individuals will be identified via the use of fingerprinting and each will be provided a smart card that is capable of holding the health data for reference across service provision centers and for storing fingerprint for authentication purposes.
The implementation for this mechanism will entail a phased pilot approach and COP 13 will cover at least 50 national drop-in-centers or points of care for FSW which will be equipped with computer, smart card reader, fingerprint sensor, and GSM Modem. The smart cards will be prepared and issued to at least 10,000 FSWs attending the selected 50 sites. An application will be developed to be used at the server, point of care, and interface with existing MARPS systems. All the fifty sites will be connected to the centralized database via GSM modems. This system will require close monitoring to ensure continued connectivity. This program will work collaboratively with the public health sector and NASCOP as well as with Implementing Partners.
