The joint strategy of the two national programmes
1. Intensified case finding of TB among HIVinfected individuals, 2. VCCT services for TB patients, 3. Improved TB/HIV awareness and health education, 4. Cotrimoxazole prophylaxis, and 5. Referral to HIV care and treatment including ART.
Integrated TB and HIV services • Integrated TB and HIV services are implemented in 18 TB/HIV sites at the end of 2012. • In 2013 17-NAP and 11-IHC sites will implement TB/HIV services (total 28). • In 2014 8 sites will expand integrated TB/HIV services (total 36) and • 6 sites in 2015 (total 42).
Integrated TB and HIV care activities • Activities will be integrated into national disease programs at the central, region/state, and township level. • The primary activities that will be conducted at integrated TB/HIV sites include joint training of NTP and NAP staff on – the management of TB/HIV co-infection, – intensified TB case finding among HIV patients through the implementation of enhanced TB screening procedures, – provision of HIV VCCT services to TB patients and – appropriate referrals to HIV care and treatment services as needed, – as well as the establishment of elements of TB infection control in institutional settings

Elements of the national TB/HIV strategy • As some elements of the national TB/HIV strategy fall within the responsibility of the NTP while others are under NAP responsibility, • the currently proposed work plan and budget were developed collaboratively by both national programs with inputs of NGO stakeholders. • The budget has been divided between both proposal components without causing duplications. • Regarding the HIV component costs for ARV, condoms and cotrimoxazole prophylaxis are included in the NAP budget. • The testing kits for TB patients have been budgeted under the NTP.
