Description:S T R A T E G I C F O C U S
The Government of Cambodia is a global leader in the fight against HIV. It has cut adult infection rates in the general population by more than half in the past 15 years, and as of December 2016 has been providing HIV treatment to over 95% of diagnosed people living with AIDS. The goal of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s (CDC) U.S. President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) work is to assist Cambodia to achieve sustained elimination of new HIV infections by 2025 collaborating in these four areas:
1) Finding undiagnosed HIV cases: applying cutting-edge risk elicitation techniques to find new HIV- positives more effectively and implementing provider initiated testing, contact tracing, and partner notification
2) Assuring quality across the HIV cascade: introducing innovative treatment support strategies such as multi-month scripting, same-day antiretroviral treatment (ART) initiation, and other service efficiencies, and laboratory strengthening
3) Strengthening surveillance and routine monitoring systems: improving how systems find, describe, and follow HIV-positive patients through the treatment cascade
4) Boosted integrated active case management (B-IACM): supporting Cambodia’s active case management program that follows individuals through the HIV cascade from the first reactive test to receiving treatment.
