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.

TITLE: Providing Insurance to Strengthen Households with Orphans and Vulnerable Children (OVC).
PEPFAR Tanzania has worked with the Government of the Netherlands to apply an integrated plan to
provide direct support to HIV/AIDS-impacted people, while simultaneously investing in the development of a
robust private sector health care capacity. Recent studies show that at the country's current level of
development, the private sector must be leveraged to assist in health care provision if the government is to
realize its goal of ensuring access to health care services to all who need it.
This activity collaborates with an innovative public-private partnership designed to provide basic employer
provided health insurance to 50,000 low-income wage earners by leveraging the in-place program to offer
insurance benefits to caregivers and their families who are willing to take in OVC. The program provides
insurance premium subsidies, which the private sector in-country insurer matches by agreeing to take only
3%, profit rather than the standard 18% (resulting in a 15% insurer contribution).
ACCOMPLISHMENTS: new activity
ACTIVITIES: The USG/Tanzania has linked with the Dutch Government to implement an integrated plan to
provide direct support to HIV/AIDS-impacted people while simultaneously investing in the development of a
robust private sector health care capacity. This activity will extend the basic health care coverage package
by covering the care costs associated with households who are willing to take in OVC. The care will be
provided in certified private, non-governmental health facilities, as well as through home-based care
providers. The arrangement will have the dual effect of increasing household support for families caring for
OVC, while also encouraging the development of a parallel private sector health care network designed to
encourage and support employer-sponsored health care coverage. No targets have been set because the
beneficiaries will be served by USG-funded implementing partners and will be reported under those
partners programs.
LINKAGES: This activity links to the other insurance program activities in treatment and the on-going
activity in counseling and testing. Collaboration on the pilot programs will occur with Deloitte TUNAJALI
OVC activities, and possibly with other USG-funded OVC implementing partners.
CHECK BOXES: The program will serve OVC and their households, strengthening the household and
contributing to economic security.
SUSTAINAIBLITY: By building interest in health insurance, the program is expected to strengthen families
and develop the practice of using health insurance to strengthen health services.
