FP Unit cost study

Family Planning programs have historically had limited financial data for decision-making around program implementation and resource allocation and prioritization. To help improve data availability on government FP expenditures, the Track20 Project works directly with governments in participating FP2020 countries to collect, analyze and actively use data to produce annual estimates on a range of key FP indicators. The project also aims to obtain primary cost data to improve costing of FP strategies and plans. Samasha was therefore contracted by Avenir Health/Track20 in collaboration with Ministry of Health, to the FP Unit cost study in Uganda.

The study is aimed at;

• The cost of delivering FP services in a variety of settings and at various implementation levels (i.e. at site level and above site).
• The specific cost components (labour, drugs and medical supplies, equipment, etc.) that drive or carry the largest share of the total cost of service delivery.
