Costing Case Management Services for HIV and Tuberculosis Provided by Nongovernmental Organizations in the Kyrgyz Republic

HP+ has been supporting efforts to develop a legal and regulatory framework, tools, and capacity to implement social procurement in the health sector in the Kyrgyz Republic. This study provides the Government of the Kyrgyz Republic with a reference source for the cost of case management services for HIV and tuberculosis for adults, as provided by nongovernmental organizations (NGOs), to aid implementation of the Law on Social Procurement. The findings show variation in approaches to case management, leading in turn to variation in cost of service provision. Large variation in the time taken to provide certain services, as well as incidental expenses, were identified. The findings from the study provide valuable insight into the situation for the Government of the Kyrgyz Republic when looking at costs to consider and cover when purchasing services from NGOs through a social contracting mechanism.
