With a substantial increase in the number of reported HIV cases, little work has been done to understand how resources have been distributed and what factors may have influenced allocation within the newly introduced Enhanced National AIDS Control Program of Pakistan, said a recent report by scientists in a health services journal.
The study sought to identify issues that influence allocation of resources within public health programs and to identify perceptions of decision makers about the process of resource allocation specifically within Pakistan’s Enhanced National AIDS Control Program.
The research was undertaken by S. Husain from the Department of Health Sciences, Health Systems Division at Aga Khan University, and published in the journal BMC Health Services Research.
