  1. Bridging the HIV Implementation Gap: A Path To Health Systems Strengthening Jim Yong Kim M.D., Ph.D. François Xavier Bagnoud Center for Health and Human Rights Brigham and Women’s Hospital Harvard Medical School Harvard School of Public Health Partners In Health

  2. Launching PEPFAR “AIDS can be prevented. Anti-retroviral drugs can extend life for many years. And the cost of those drugs has dropped from $12,000 a year to under $300 a year -- which places a tremendous possibility within our grasp. Ladies and gentlemen, seldom has history offered a greater opportunity to do so much for so many” January 28, 2003 "The British government has learned that Saddam Hussein recently sought significant quantities of uranium from Africa."

  4. HIV Prevention and Treatment Integration into Primary Health Care Boucan Carre June 03: VCT with Staff Essential Meds Community outreach Boucan Carre March 03

  5. Success story: Central Plateau, Haiti Integrated HIV/TB programme strengthens primary health care including immunization coverage

  6. Implementation bottleneck • Vaccines • Primary Health Care • Drug Therapies • Maternal and ChildHealth Care • Basic Surgery

Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation$6.5 BThe Global Fund$8.6 BPresident’s Emergency Plan for AIDS$15 BInternational Finance Facility$4 BMulti-Country HIV/AIDS Program$1.1 BGlobal Alliance$3 BPublic-private partnerships$1.2 BAnti-Malaria Initiative in Africa (proposed) $1.2 BUnited Nations Fund$360 M Warren Buffet $37 B TOTAL $77.7 B TOTAL $40.7 B *Funds pledged, committed, or spent. Overlap exists between organizations (e.g., PEPFAR money supports the Global Fund). Adapted from Jon Cohen, The new world of global health. Science 2006;311(5758):162-167.

  8. Gates grants GATES GRANTS $448M - new health technologies$413M - HIV/AIDS vaccine $258M - malaria vaccine$165M - new malaria drugs$124M - anti-HIV microbicides$115M - diarrhea/nutrition$106M - TB vaccines/diagnostics

  9. Implementation bottleneck + • Vaccines • Primary Health Care • Drug therapies • Maternal Child Health Care • Basic Surgery • Gates Foundation develops: • Microbicides and other preventive tools • New malaria and TB drugs, diagnostics • New combination therapies • Drugs for neglected diseases • >10 new vaccines

  10. GLOBAL HEALTH “STRATEGY” TO DATE Countries and even districts working in isolation Project-based Donor preference driven Experimental pilots that never scale Competition among implementers Cottage industry approach Fragmentation of services Ineffective and Non-results oriented Absence of technology and measurement orientation Resources diverted for overhead and consultants Clear need for a better approach Antiretroviral Therapy Condom Distribution Corporate Involvement HIV/AIDS Fieldworkers Clinic Construction Educational Campaigns

  11. Need for an Interdisciplinary Approach Quality Improvement Economics Management Science Anthropology Global Health Delivery Systems Design Medicine Sociology Strategy Health Services Research Operations Research

  12. Framework for Investigating Health Systems Dynamics Disciplines Baseline Analysis: Clinic and System-Level • Epidemiology, Anthropology, Economics • Strategy Case Studies • Systems Dynamics Simulation Model • Operations Research Hypothesis • System Optimization and Engineering Design Delivery Model • Management Sciences Implement • Quality Improvement Evaluation

  13. Uganda The AIDS Support Organization (TASO) Joint Clinical Research Center (JCRC)

  14. TASO Joint Clinical Research Center • Supported by PEPFAR • US Partner: CDC- public health focused • Community-based model • Add’n Services: Counseling, Home-based follow up, Food support, Vocational training • Results: • 2500 patients in ~18 months • Required to attend adherence counseling sessions • Free Medication; $0.30 user fee • Focuses on keeping patients on treatment • Supported by PEPFAR • US Partner: USAID- development focused • Medical center-based model • Distribution of ARVs is the key • Results: • 19,000 patients in ~18 months • Expanded to >30 clinics in public health facilities • Cost of treatment: $16/ month • Free ARVs to ~2000 orphans and pregnant women • Now- Expanding strategies such as home visits to address adherence • Focuses on Financial independence

  15. Benefits of integrating VCT with HIV treatment • Supply chain management • Quality vs. scale • Methods of ensuring HIV treatment compliance Global Health Delivery Cases Zamne Lasante, Haiti AMPATH, Kenya CIDRZ, Zambia TASO, Uganda

  16. Academic Consortium Harvard University WHO Positive Synergies Initiative • WHO-led initiative for G8, Italy 2009 • 3 consortia: Academic, civil society, and implementers • Fourteen academic partners from Africa, Asia, Europe, and the U.S.

  17. Pathways to Impact GHI investment D E L I V E R Y Governance Health Outcomes Government expenditure Financing Fairness of Financing Health workforce Private expenditure Information Responsiveness Other external expenditure Medical products

  18. Levels of Analysis Cross-country quantitative analysis Identify relationships Country-level mixed methods analysis Understand relationships Provider-unit level analysis Understand the impact

  19. WHO Positive Synergies Research Questions How do GHI-funded programmes interact with health systems in varied country contexts?

  20. WHO Positive SynergiesMethods Qualitative and quantitative case studies Key informants:

  21. WHO Positive Synergies Research Questions How do different health system designs and specific implementation strategies influence the coverage of targeted and non-targeted interventions?

  22. WHO Positive SynergiesMethods Facility Assessment Tool

  23. Funds implementation, evaluation and operations research of innovative approaches to improve comprehensive primary care in Africa Consortium of PIH,BWH,HMS and HSPH awarded planning grant to develop 5 year implementation grant 3 countries (Rwanda, Lesotho, Malawi) Doris Duke AfricanHealth Initiative

  24. Conduct research on the effect of these interventions Implement health care improvements and health system strengthening Assess the efficacy of the overall program in improving health access and outcomes Collect data to facilitate ongoing quality improvement and allow for mid-course corrections Doris Duke Primary Health Initiative

  25. Is there a place for a new field in health research and education? Basic Science Clinical Science EvaluationScience What is the pathophysiology? What is the diagnosis and appropriate intervention? Does the intervention and delivery model work?

  26. Is there a place for a new field in health research and education? Basic Science Clinical Science EvaluationScience Healthcare Delivery Science How do we best deliverthe intervention to everyone? What is the pathophysiology? What is the diagnosis and appropriate intervention? Does the intervention and delivery model work?

  27. What is to be done? • Can these efforts help to build the new field of global health delivery science? • Can we move beyond the RCT? • Can we begin to illuminate the black box of delivery? • Can we build “positive synergies” and improve outcomes? • Where are the opportunities? • Positive Synergies, Doris Duke • Gates – "Delivery" • IHP – Common Monitoring and Evaluation • PEPFAR and GFATM
