Full Description
Description
The Award Ceiling for Year 1 is 0 (none). CDC anticipates an Approximate Total Fiscal Year Funding amount of $1,000,000 for Year 1, subject to the availability of funds.
This NOFO will support previous work under CDC-RFA-GH21-2142. It builds on efforts to strengthen above-service delivery investments and enhance strategies designed to address program-level challenges, such as bringing the remaining undiagnosed people living with HIV into the cascade of treatment and care. There is still a need to operationalize and optimize service developed frameworks on broader platforms and to reach all levels of delivery as part of routine HIV care, which include district hospitals, health centers, and regional hub laboratories throughout the country. Systems support continues to be important as Rwanda shifts from achieving epidemic control to building a sustained national public health response to HIV/AIDS and other public health emergencies affecting people living with HIV.
The country will continue to support high-quality, patient centered care through:
- Investing in the existing HIV workforce capacity building.
- Quality improvement of service delivery.
- Improving linkage to treatment.
- Increasing viral suppression.
- Strengthening patient level data systems to ensure efficient and effective public health response.
- Optimizing the laboratory testing network.
- Providing continuous quality improvement and monitoring systems for specimen referral.
- Improved testing and timely return of test results from laboratory to healthcare providers.
