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: 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 2018
NOTE: The following is taken from summaries released by PEPFAR on the PEPFAR Data Dashboard. They are incomplete summary paragraphs only and do not contain the full mechanism details. When the full narratives are released, we will update the mechanism pages accordingly.
The BroadReach Healthcare (BRHC) program pursues these objectives in support of SAG: 1) improve HIV-related population outcomes by strengthening health and patient management systems at the district level; 2) build capacity of DHMT and district management systems to support HIV/TB services and HSS; 3) support development and implementation of SAG policies for HIV-related interventions; and, 4) support transition to a sustainable natl comprehensive HIV/TB program. The objectives and TA/mentorship delivered will be aligned to the USG-SAG PFIP, NSP, NSDA, PHC Re-engineering program, NCS and NHI objectives. The BRHC Team supports the following districts: Ekurhuleni (GP), Harry Gwala (Sisonke) (KZN), West Coast (WC), Bojanala (NW), and Ngaka Modiri Molema (NW) covering a total population of over 6,500,000. BRHC support will focus on the DHMT and sub-district managers, while CDC partners will focus on HSS at facility levels.
BRHC’s capacity building and TA approach empowers SAG to strengthen and expand leadership in the delivery of HIV/TB services, thus reducing costs over the life of the project. The targeted mentorship, TA & supportive supervision provided by BRHC will transition rapidly to SAG staff and this transition will be monitored through the use of jointly agreed implementation and monitoring plans. The approach leverages the BRHC Team’s technical expertise to deliver scalable and sustainable solutions while ensuring cost efficiencies.
BRHC’s M&E strategy will: track results achieved, providing the basis for monitoring patient and client outcomes; monitor performance and program quality; manage data quality, reporting, dissemination and use; strengthen M&E capacity; and, measure program effects in the achievement of program, USAID and SAG objectives.
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.
