Overview
The Clinton Health Access Initiative, Inc. (CHAI) is a global health
organization committed to saving lives and reducing the burden of disease in
low-and middle-income countries, while strengthening the capabilities of
governments and the private sector in those countries to create and sustain
high-quality health systems that can succeed without our assistance. For more
information, please visit: http://www.clintonhealthaccess.org
CHAI started supporting Indonesia’s Ministry of Health in 2008 to scale up
adult anti-retroviral therapy through improving supply chain management, as
well as providing technical assistance for improving the quality of ART and
laboratory systems to support HIV care and treatment. In recent years, CHAI has
expanded its support to the Ministry of Health to other areas including
hepatitis and helping to facilitate BMS (Bristol-Myers Squibb) to donate
pan-genotypic DAA (Direct-acting Antiviral), daclatasvir, more effective
treatment for HCV patient, improving access to family planning, point of care
diagnostics, m-health, maternal and child health including access to
immunization, and technical support for the Ministry of Health’s drive to
sustainably fund healthcare.
Several provinces, districts, and Primary Health Centers (PHCs) in Indonesia
had implemented one-gate policy for their drug and vaccine management to
integrate drug and vaccines storage and the process of management and
monitoring between technical units and pharmacy. The implementation of this
policy is carried out in stages and is expected to be implemented in its
entirety by 2024.
Objectives
One-gate policy has not been implemented by all PHO and DHO, and in those that
had the implementation efficacy varies widely between places. CHAI would like
to assess the implementation efficacy in units that had implemented one-gate
policy, especially within immunization program context. Through this
assessment, CHAI would document lesson learned from these units and develop a
recommendation for an effective one-gate policy implementation that can be
scaled-up to other units.
Scope of Activities
The consultant is expected to analyze the foundation of one-gate policy from
national to sub-national level, its implementation and challenges in sample
areas, and to develop recommendation on transition steps to ensure effective
implementation in decentralized setting. The activities would include:
1. Collecting and analyzing the information, guidelines, policy, reference,
literature for one gate policy from national to sub-national level.
2. Analyze one-gate policy implementation within NTB and Babel provinces in
selected districts
3. Develop recommendation of one-gate policy transition steps to ensure
effective implementation
