Establishing a Package of SRH Services for HIV-Positive and Negative Women

South Africa has extensive guidelines and policies regarding the provision of sexual and reproductive (SRH) services; however, there are limited, if any, resources available which provide guidance on the current costs of service provision and the potential costs given new policy goals for increasing access. HE²RO staff are engaging policymakers at the national and provision level to establish a clearer understanding of SRH funding in the country and goals for shifting and/or scaling up access. In addition, we have ongoing research which aims to document HIV-positive and -negative women’s access and/or challenges to accessing SRH services. Finally, we are exploring the potential for an integrated cost model which would aid planning and budgeting for SRH service delivery in the country.
