The National Center for Blood Transfusion (CNTS) strives to collect, analyze, and distribute safe blood in adequate quantities to 100% of patients. CNTS performs quality assessments to define and document critical control points for blood collection, testing, component production, storage, distribution, and develop tools for quality improvement and corrective actions using pipeline until the cooperative agreement extension end date of March 15, 2015. CNTS will continue external quality assurance for serology and blood grouping with external laboratories. The CNTS is in the process of obtaining accreditation in order to ensure the highest standard of care for both patients and donors in blood banking, transfusion medicine and testing. Monitoring and evaluation activities are conducted through site visits and according to PEPFAR requirements.

Mechanism Target Information

Since COP2014, PEPFAR no longer produces narratives for every mechanism it funds. However, PEPFAR has now included performance targets or indicator information for each mechanism based on the Monitoring, Evaluation, and Reporting (MER) system. The MER guidance is available on PEPFAR's website https://www.pepfar.gov/reports/guidance/. Note that COP years 2014-2015 were under a previous version of the MER system and the indicators and definitions may have changed as of the new 2.0 guidance.

This mechanism has no published performance targets or indicators.
