 Implementation Status and Key Decisions
  Commitment towards the project development objectives remains high and the Ministry of Public Health (MOPH)is exerting all efforts for rapid
  implementation of project activities. Progress towards achievement of project development objective is rated satisfactory with disbursement rate of
  64 %. Despite initial delays in the flow of funds from the Ministry of Finance to the MOPH, project implementation intensified since May 2016. To
  date, significant progress has been made with 75 primary health care centers contracted clinic reaching the 75 targeted centers. In turn, centers
  started conducting outreach activities among the different stakeholders and enrolling targeted beneficiaries reaching 103,752 beneficiaries.
  Capacity building and on-the-job training continue to be a focus of the Project Management Unit and has exceeded the project target with 796
  health personnel receiving training (with a target of 400). Building the capacity of the PHCCs to ensure their readiness for service delivery requires

  training on the new IT system, financial management and reporting mechanisms, enrollment, and outreach activities. System strengthening at the
  central level is also underway. This includes the development of M&E and reporting policies and procedures, IT system modules, communication
  strategy. Based on discussions held during the Mid-Term Review for the project in February 2018, it was agreed to extend the project closing date
  by one year from December 30, 2018 to December 31, 2019 to allow the MoPH to fully achieve the Project Development Objective and deliver all
  planned activities.
