HIV/AIDS Resource Tracking: Lessons learned and next steps Prepared for: Fourth Global National Health Accounts Symposium 7-8 July Barcelona, Spain Paul R. De Lay Director of Evaluation UNAIDS
The AIDS epidemic The role for national spending assessments l Rapidly increasing resources l Performance based disbursements l Non-health interventions l Need for broad health sector strengthening l Chronic care with increasingly complex and expensive regimens
HIV/AIDS Spending Low- & Middle-Income Countries, *Grant component of concessional loans. (US$ disbursements in millions) *Grant component of concessional loan disbursements. * Does not include GF or Foundation data
Key Issues l History of UNAIDS involvement l Recent estimates for resources needed and resources available l The critical role for national spending assessments (including National Health Accounts) l Challenges and future directions
The Role of UNAIDS in Estimating Resource Needs Ongoing estimation process since 2001 l June Prepared for UNGASS – $10 billion by 2005 ($4.8 prevention, $4.8 treatment) l Nov Post Barcelona- project out to 2007 (include UP, PEP, med injections ($10.5 in 2005 and $15.2 in 2007) l July Used 3X5 public health model, decrease in ARV prices, OI Rx, PEP, nutritional support, increased T&C, included gap analysis ($ and $19.9 in 2007)
What is new about these latest estimates l Additional activities are included –Increase range of activities for prevention, care, treatment, OVC support, including blood safety, PEP, universal precautions, provider initiated testing l Defines coverage based on type of epidemic (low prevalence, concentrated, generalized) l Includes programme and human resource costs
Prevention Related Activities l Mass media l Community mobilization l Voluntary counselling and testing l Youth in school l Youth out of school l Programmes focused on sex workers and their clients l Programmes focused on MSM l Harm reduction programmes for IDU l Workplace l Prevention programs for people living with HIV l Special populations l Condom social marketing l Public and commercial sector condom provision l Improving management of STI l Prevention of mother-to-child transmission l Blood safety l Post-exposure prophylaxis (health care setting, rape) l Safe medical injections l Universal precautions

AIDS Resource Needs * The totals for have been rounded to the first decimal place with the result that there may be small differences with the figures for sub-totals in the text because of rounding.

Others: includes direct reports Australia, Finland, Ireland, Sweden & Switzerland, and estimates for Austria, Belgium, Denmark, Greece, Luxembourg, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal and Spain. Japan: 2004 information on commitments was still incomplete, thus these are UNAIDS estimates. UK: Preliminary estimates. The UK (DFID) holds a policy not to separate the commitments for AIDS and sexual and reproductive health. Reproductive health activities were reviewed and included if there was a substantial portion focused on AIDS. France: These are preliminary estimates and might be revised later Direct Bilateral Donor Commitments to Recipient Countries for HIV and AIDS (Global Fund and international research was not included) Source: Resource Needs for an Expanded Response to AIDS in Low and Middle Income Countries.

Tracking resources at country level Major issues: l Effectiveness of funding l Equity of funding l Additionality l Impact on health and other social sectors l External donor agendas

National AIDS Spending Assessments Future input from HIV-AIDS resource tracking l Gap analysis- –Can you subtract resources available from resource needs? l Assessing sustainability/predictability of funding –By source? Domestic public and private –By type of expenditure? Commodities Infrastructure
National AIDS Spending Assessments Work in progress for better spending in countries l Efficiency - bottlenecks l Additionality – needed for Global Fund l Tracking non-health expenditures l Timeliness of data – “real time” l Effectiveness – “funding for the right interventions” l Equity – “funding for the right populations” l Linking spending assessments with resource needs estimations
