The event, hosted by Management Sciences for Health (#MSH) and Living Goods, featured a distinguished panel of speakers who highlighted the profound impact of Primary Health Care (PHC) on global health outcomes.

"Radical collaboration is a core principle of the Community Health Impact Coalition, and I believe it's a key factor in our success in making professional #communityhealth workers the norm," Liz Jarman, CEO of Living Goods.

Vihiga County is our latest implementation support site where we are working with the County to scale eCHIS to 1440 community health workers (#CHWs) and 150 community health assistants (#CHAs) to deliver healthcare to 630,000 residents.

This session was part of the wider efforts to sensitize counties on the new policy for Pneumonia Case management. The policy allows CHWs to treat uncomplicated pneumonia cases at the community level using Amoxyl DT.

We are proud to be partnering with Busia County, Kenya, in the electronic Community Health System (eCHIS) scale in alignment with the broader National government's momentum.

Kisumu County was the pioneer in adopting #eCHIS and successfully digitized nearly 100% of its CHP network. It also served as the primary e-CHIS Pilot site in Kenya, setting the stage for the current nationwide scaling of the program.

In community health contexts, meanwhile, RBF can be impactful and cost-effective but needs to be simplified to fit the environment in which it is applied to avoid discounting payment based on external, uncontrollable factors.

BRAC is transitioning the remaining 1,500 of their CHWs (who do not have DESC support) to government as eCHIS rolls out.

CHWs were more active and effective, driven by tech improvements, a stable supply of medicines, improved supervision and intentional data use through regular reviews that resulted in priority follow-ups to low-performing areas or CHWs.
