Health System Strengthening. 108. The CHAPS model introduced interventions in health system strengthening to complement the six technical interventions. These included training in management components such as logistics management and health information management, establishment of regular work planning and monitoring, and emphasis on regular and supportive supervision. While Project Hope Malawi had previously been involved with extensive program implementation particularly at the community and health center levels, the focus on management and system strengthening was new. Similarly, the districts had not previously partnered with NGOs to strengthen their management systems. As a result, the new relationship presented challenges both in scope of influence and establishment of trust.

Health System Strengthening. During Q1, HFA coordinated a four-day workshop to draft the National Roadmap for DHIS2 (and Open LMIS) in conjunction with GTI and GEPE, bringing on board PSI/Global experts and local staff. During the workshop, representatives from MOH, donors, and partners learned about the relevance of coordinating national efforts to improve the health information system and to avoid duplication of tasks and waste of resources. Working together, all participants identified the timelines and budget needs for developing the different components of DHIS2. After the workshop, HFA worked separately with different partners to identify the financial resources each one will contribute to DHIS2 implementation, integrating that information into the final version of the Road Map, which was immediately shared with USAID for comments and inputs. It must be noted that the Road Map produced in Q1 was used by NMCP and MOH as a reference to develop the Angolan proposal for the next round of the Global Fund Health System Strengthening concept note. Using the jointly drafted Road Map as general framework, HFA also developed the following products/ activities during Q1, all aiming at having a fully DHIS2 platform by the end of the FY2018: 1. Conducted an assessment of the DHIS2 pilot phase, reinforcing the need to create/improve validation rules for data quality assurance, import historic data from paper based/excel forms, improve quality supervision, improve governance and regulation rules, etc. 2. Created an implementation plan for MOH, which covers DHIS2 implementation at country level, considering the effort and responsibilities of all partners. 3. Created an implementation plan specific for HFA, focusing on six provinces where PMI supports work on Malaria Case Management, with detailed budget needs and aligning chronogram with the general national Road Map and the MOH plan. 4. Provided technical support on DHIS2 to MOH on: ✓ “Opening date” in DHIS2 for every health facility; ✓ Deleting non-regular users from the main DHIS2 instance (the large number of users was preventing MOH from keeping control of the system management); ✓ Configuring MOH approved forms for data entry (External Clinic Consultation, Emergency Room, Health Units, Clinical check-ins and check-outs). During Q1, HFA also worked on translating into Portuguese and installing the standard PSI malaria case management supervision forms on electronic tablets (Health Network Quality Improvement System, HNQIS), in order to pro...

Health System Strengthening. Using the DHIS2 Road Map as a reference and the subsequent HFA implementation plan, targets for Q2 will focus on training key personnel prior to the roll out in all six provinces; for example, training 6 TOTs, plus 2 people at central level (GTI/GEPE). During Q3 and Q4, training of municipal and provincial personnel will take place in three provinces each quarter. Although it is expected that DHIS2 will be fully implemented by the end of Q4, many municipalities will still be adjusting to the new platform, so a conservative target of 70% was established for municipal reports submitted on time. It is also expected that at least 70% of the municipal authorities in the six PMI provinces will meet at least quarterly with provincial level authorities to analyze reports and make decisions based on DHIS2 information. To achieve targets for Q2, the following activities are envisioned for January-March 2018: ✓ Continue the improvement/configuration of official malaria and other disease forms. ✓ Hire and train six TOTs for the six PMI provinces. ✓ Start implementation in three out six provinces on a first phase (provinces will be defined by GTI/GEPE, in coordination with USAID and PSI). In Q3 and Q4, HFA expects to finalize the DHIS2 implementation in the remaining three provinces. ✓ By the end of the FY18 (when DHIS2 is fully operational), an evaluation of the DHIS2 platform will be planned to adjust for improvements and to fix errors. ✓ Coordinate a Health Technological Camp to identify current informational tools used in the private and public sectors that can potentially be integrated into or linked to the DHIS2 platform, in order to enrich the National Health Information System. ✓ Develop the Study Design and get Ethical Approval for the iCCM evaluation. Fieldwork for a baseline survey will be conducted using existing tools to evaluate the new geographical areas to be covered by the ADECOS program (Zaire and Lunda Sul provinces). ✓ Develop the Study Design and get Ethical Approval for an operational research on Southeast Asian migrants in Angola, to understand health seeking behavior in case of fever and malaria symptoms. ✓ In coordination with NCMP and CDC, HFA will conduct a Rapid Urban Malaria Assessment (XXXX) to improve understanding of urban malaria epidemiology, evaluate health facility readiness for outbreaks, and the accuracy of diagnosis of febrile illnesses. The geographical area is yet to be defined, and is pending final approval from MOH.
