1 Case Based Surveillance System in Ethiopia

2 Acronyms POC- Proof of Concept EPHI Ethiopian Public Health Institute FMOH Federal Ministry of Health Ethiopia NASTAD -

3 Outline Proof of Concept (POC) for implementation of HIV CBS Goal of POC Methods Results Limitations Way forward Current plan

4 Why POC CDC, FMOH, and EPHI recommend determining feasibility of CBS via Proof of Concept (POC) assessment Ethical approval granted from EPHI and CDC Proof of Concept conducted in Addis Ababa EPHI lead the initiative, NASTAD and CDC provide technical assistance

5 CBS vs. PMS Case Based Surveillance Individual case data Population level information Describes disease trends Patient demographic and risk information available for all cases Patient Monitoring System Aggregate data Service level information Measures service uptake and performance May provide some demographic and risk information

6 Goal of POC Goal: Assess existing data and collection processes to define whether criteria are in place to support implementation HIV case based surveillance Objectives Assess quality of surveillance-related variables Identify method to match and link patient data Identify method to improve availability of surveillance-related variables via case reporting Demonstrate patient-level data analyses useful to document patient linkages, disease progression and clinical outcomes

7 Methods Sample Strategy Adult and pediatric HIV patients Selected Addis Ababa health facilities Point in time assessment of ART clinical data Table: Health facilities participating in Proof of Concept for HIV Case Based Surveillance, Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, Data Quality Assessment Case Matching Case Reporting Data Analysis Paper Elect.

21 Limitations Quality assessment data sources different Results not directly comparable; provides information on two primary sources of HIV surveillance data Quality of key variables less than anticipated Case matching algorithms affected by quality of key variables Longitudinal analysis limited by point in time dataset Sample of health facilities in Addis may underestimate patient duplication/mobility across health system

22 FMOH View on proof of Concept The result of the POC reviewed by the TWG and FMOH The ministry endorsed a larger scale implementation of the program under the leadership of EPHI

23 Way Forward Implement routine electronic data transfer and case reporting Establish system requirements Data elements Standard format Enable central database to receive, validate, transform, store, and analyze data Phased approach of on-boarding health facilities for reporting Diagnosed cases Key sentinel events on diagnosed cases Create mechanisms/pathways for data transfer All electronic Electronic/paper mix All paper

24 Based on POC- HIV case Based surveillance protocol developed and submitted for review Objectives of Ethiopia CBS protocol Define, gather requirements, and implement the Ethiopia HIV case based surveillance Implement routine case reporting, data transfer, and centralized data management of HIV case based surveillance system Monitor implementation and scale up of HIV case reporting

25 Methods Population to be studied All individuals who are diagnosed with HIV and/or receiving HIV health services at participating health facilities and their associated community based service centers Selection criteria and proposed sites Volume of HIV-positive tests and HIV patients on care and treatment Availability of EMR systems and technical capacity to perform secure data transfer Region Total Addis Ababa Oromia Dire Dawa Amhara Tigray Total 100 (17.6%) 343 (60.3%) 126 (22.1%) 569 (100%)
