The purpose of this application is to support the CDC to provide technical assistance (TA) to PEPFAR implementing partners(IPs) and national, provincial, and district DOHs to enhance Quality Assurance (QA) and Quality Improvement (QI) standardpractices for the prevention and treatment of HIV and HIV/TB. We will take a participatory approach to capacity building,collaborating with stakeholders at each stage of implementation to create sustainable solutions to support the rapid scale-upof high-quality service delivery to achieve 95-95-95 care and treatment targets in South Africa. Proposed activities will definebenchmarks for quality care; increase the frequency and effectiveness of QA assessments and other measures; build DOHand IP capacity to implement innovative, evidence-based QI approaches; develop informatics solutions and dashboards toimprove data analysis and interpretation; and create a QI Learning System using the best data available to develop, test,and implement change activities.To achieve our outcomes, we have formed a consortium between Global Strategic Information (GSI) and HEALTHQUAL atUCSF and IRD South Africa. Each brings a long history providing TA to national governments to improve HIV and HIV/TBcare and treatment performance. Consortium members have collectively provided health systems strengthening support,such as developing Learning Networks and district-level QI Collaboratives (QIC), capacity building coaching and mentoring,TA to develop national QA and QI strategies and strengthen national data quality assurance and improvement; trainings incare cascade analysis and HIV triangulation; and developing health informatics solutions and dashboards to visualize andenhance data use for decision-making.We anticipate achieving the following short-term outcomes in Years 1-2: 1) Improved early identification of performance gapsand rapid remedial actions to reach targets on PEPFAR MER indicators for HIV/TB prevention and treatment se rvicedelivery across PEPFAR-supported districts; 2) Improved knowledge and skills of PEPFAR IPs, national, provincial anddistrict level DOHs and other key stakeholders using QI methodologies and strategies to improve performance; 3) Quickeridentification and response to achieve high quality services, productive remedial plans, and improved performance on HIVand HIV/TB indicators through best practices; 4) Increased number of quality assessments and use of innovativeapproaches for HIV and HIV/TB QI standards in facilities; and 5) Improved availability of innovative tools, data analysis andvisualizations for PEPFAR programs and improved MER indicator performance across PEPFAR supported districts.In Years 3-5, we anticipate achieving the following intermediate and long-term outcomes: 1) Improved TA, QI approaches,and assessment findings for IPs and to national, provincial, and district DOHs for reducing performance gaps in HIV andHIV/TB prevention and treatment across PEPFAR-supported districts; 2) Increased utilization of QI and QA approaches byIPs and national, provincial and district DOHs to sustain strong performance; 3) Improved practices incorporated into thecurrent HIV and HIV/TB prevention and treatment service delivery models across facilities; 4) Improved performance andincorporated QI and QA assessments by facility staff and IPs on HIV and HIV/TB service delivery; 5) Increased utilizationand understanding of data through analysis and design of visual presentation for program improvements; 6) Improvedperformance on MER indicators for HIV and HIV/TB at the national, provincial, and district levels in South Africa; 7) Asustainable improvement of quality of service delivery from consistent use of QI and QA approaches; and 8) Improved HIVand HIV/TB service delivery results for the development of stronger national guidelines and standards; improved data-drivenprogram and decision-making from innovative data analysis tools.
