Intermittent Preventive Therapy (IPT) with SP for pregnant women 4. Use of Long Lasting Insecticide Treated nets (LLIN). 5. Health Education. Lagos State commenced integrated vector management which include Indoor Residual Spraying and Larviciding in 2010.
6 Lagos State Approach to Malaria Control contd. Malaria Control Committee: The State has a Malaria Research, Technical and Advisory Committee (LASMARTAC).

11 Involvement of the Private Sector Who are the Private Sector? All healthcare providers who exist outside the public sector. They could be profit oriented or not-for-profit. These include: Hospitals, maternity homes, clinics, pharmacies, patent medicine vendors pharmaceutical companies, corporate financiers, non-governmental organizations etc. Why involve the Private Sector? A large proportion of clients, especially in Lagos State, access care from private healthcare providers. Healthcare costs are a huge burden on the less privileged in society. Government resources are limited. Development of sustainable private sector partnerships will increase coverage of key interventions, better reach in rural/remote areas and increased choice for households

Healthcare costs are a huge burden on the less privileged in society. Government resources are limited. Development of sustainable private sector partnerships will increase coverage of key interventions, better reach in rural/remote areas and increased choice for households
13 Involvement of the Private Sector: Specific Roles. Involvement in market based approaches aimed at improving availability, access and affordability of malaria care and key commodities. These include: Social Marketing: an approach used to develop activities aimed at changing or maintaining people s behaviour for the benefit of individuals and society as a whole. Social Franchising: organization of multiple, existing, private providers into contractually obligated networks to improve access to high quality healthcare that is affordable to underserved communities Drug and Commodity Supply: Subsidizing private sector supply of ACTs Increasing access to diagnostic services such as Rapid Diagnostic Testkits (RDTs) Increasing supply and distribution of commodities supporting prevention such as insecticide treated nets, insecticides for Indoor Residual spraying and Larviciding Legal and Administrative processes: Regulation and Trainings Continuous Professional Development Participation in Clinical Audits
14 Involvement of the Private Sector: Available Opportunities. Awareness Campaigns on Prevention, Diagnosis and Treatment of Malaria Subsidization of ACTs for the Private Sector Increase coverage of IRS and Larviciding Procurement of High Impact LLINs for communities where there is insecticide resistance Procurement of LLINs for distribution to pupils in primary and students in Secondary Schools Logistic support for movement of commodities to facilities Quality data collection
