Community-Centred
Service Delivery

Background
6.6 million on ART
13 fold increase in six years
Global coverage ~40%

Achievements and Challenges
People currently eligible for ART
15 million
People currently receiving ART (2010)
6.6 million
ESTIMATED TREATMENT GAP 9 million

What is Treatment 2.0
Joint WHO/UNAIDS Initiative
Catalyse the next phase of treatment: achieve and sustain
universal access and maximize preventive benefits of ART
Radical simplification and improved efficiencies and
effectiveness of all aspects of care and treatment
Continue scale up in cost neutral environment while
intensifying advocacy for more resources to end the
epidemic
– doing more with less

What WHO Is Doing
Overall coordination with UNAIDS
Provide support to countries to review and adapt T2.0 principles
Advocacy for commodity price reductions
Anchor all normative work on treatment and care under the
Treatment 2.0 umbrella

Principles for Adapting Delivery Systems
Decentralizes
• HIV care into the community
Integrates
• Prevention, diagnosis and treatment
• Using chronic health care model
Shifts from stand alone ART services
• ART delivered in primary care, ANC, MCH, TB and drug dependency services
Expands HIV testing and counseling
• Health sector and community
• Entry point to treatment and prevention
Strengthens
• Procurement and supply systems

Health sector and community-based services
Decentralization
Sub-Saharan Africa 80% rural communities
Transport to and from clinic difficult
– limited or no public transport
– roads often impassable
Best way to deliver care
– decentralization
Task shifting/sharing is key
– WHO global guidelines 2008
– slow adoption in many settings

Integration
Linking and integrating health services provides people with
user-friendly care they need, when they need it
Maximizing retention and health outcomes

HIV testing and counselling PICO
For people living in generalised or concentrated HIV
epidemics (P), should community HTC be provided by
non-physician providers (I), compared to providing only
facility based HTC and PITC (C), to increase knowledge of
HIV status linked to access to HIV prevention and
treatment (O)?
16 |
Task Shifting PICOS
For HIV-infected people eligible for ART in generalised or
concentrated epidemics (P), does initiation of ART by
appropriately trained non-physician healthcare workers (I),
compared to initiation by physicians (C), result in comparable
health and programmatic outcomes (O)?
For HIV-infected people eligible for ART in generalised or
concentrated epidemics (P), does the provision of
maintenance ART by appropriately trained non-physician
healthcare workers (I), compared to the provision of
maintenance ART by physicians (C), result in comparable
health and programmatic outcomes (O)?
17 |
Integration PICOS (1)
In countries with a high burden of TB/HIV co-infection, (P)
does ART and HIV care services provided at the TB clinic
(I) compared to referral to specialised HIV clinics (C) result
in comparable health and programmatic outcomes (O)?
In countries with a high burden of TB/HIV co-infection, (P)
does TB diagnosis and treatment at specialised HIV clinics
(I) compared to referral to TB clinics (C) result in
comparable health and programmatic outcomes (O)?
18 |
Integration PICOS (2)
For pregnant women and infants in generalised epidemics
(P) does initiation or maintenance of ART and HIV care
services within ANC/MCH clinics (I), compared to referral
to specialised HIV clinics (C), result in comparable health
and programmatic outcomes (O)?
19 |
Primary care PICOS
For HIV-infected people eligible for ART in generalised or
concentrated epidemics, (P), does the initiation of ART and
HIV care in clinics providing general services in the community
(I), compared to referral to specialised HIV clinics for ART
initiation (C), result in comparable health and programmatic
outcomes (O)?
For HIV-infected people eligible for ART in generalised, or
concentrated epidemics (P), does the provision of
maintenance ART and HIV care in clinics providing general
services in the community (I), compared to referral to
specialised HIV clinics for maintenance ART (C), result in
comparable health and programmatic outcomes (O)?

Service delivery pilot in Vietnam
Challenges for Vietnam
Late treatment initiation common
Mortality high in early phase of ART
Limited access and retention
Stigma, discrimination and punitive laws
Large burden of TB and drug dependence high among PLHIV
Highly verticalized HIV, TB, MCH programs
21 |
Treatment 2.0 adapted to Vietnam situation
Pilot implementation in two provinces
– South
– Commitment of provincial authorities for
integrated service delivery
– ART-TB-MCH services for IDU
–
–
–
–
Northwest
Emerging epidemic
Mountainous geography and ethnic minorities
decentralization critical to ensure access

Summary
Decentralized and integrated service delivery
– into the community and for the community
Key objectives
–
–
–
–
earlier initiation of ART
improved retention in care
improved survival
reduction of new HIV and TB infections over time
Increased and sustainable ART coverage with the same money
– by increasing efficiency without compromising quality of care
Synergise prevention and treatment
