Contract/Project No.: HRN-C-00-00-00019-00 Submitted to: USAID/Dar-Es-Salaam and: Karen Cavanaugh, CTO Health Systems Division Office of Health, Infectious Disease and Nutrition Center for Population, Health and Nutrition Bureau for Global Programs, Field Support and Research United States Agency for International Development Abstract The Partners for Health Reformplus Project (PHRplus), in conjunction with the Uganda Community Based Health Financing Association (UCBHFA), conducted an assessment of community-based health financing (CBHF) schemes in Uganda. The purpose of the assessment was to identify good practices/models and key obstacles to sustainability in terms of governance and management, financial management and viability, risk management, marketing and membership incentives, community buy-in, and impact on quality of life of members. The PHRplus team conducted key informant interviews and focus group discussions with CBHF scheme managers, current scheme members, and former members. These data were supplemented by records from the UCBHFA and a desk review of relevant literature. The assessment revealed that scheme membership improved overall quality of life for scheme members; however, community participation and management practices should be strengthened to improve scheme viability and sustainability. The findings will be shared among scheme managers and support organizations to improve CBHF schemes’ long-term sustainability.

The design and implementation of this assessment would not have been possible without feedback from scheme managers and the UCBHFA Executive Committee. Participating scheme leaders include Amelia Namanya (Comboni), William Rwabukare (BMC), Duncan Atikunda (BMC), Dr. Tony Tumwesigye (Kisiizi Hospital), Pontius Mayunga and Edith Nziza (Mutolere), Fredrick Makaire (Save for Health Uganda), Lovino Atwine (Nyakibale), Josephine Namugenyi (Kitovu), Daniel Kakunta (Ishaka), Victoria Kabuye (Kirinya Women's Farmers Cooperative, Bweyogerere), and Pamela Magezi (Rugarama Health Centre). Executive Committee members who are not scheme managers include Honorable Dr. Eliode Tumwesigye, Dr. Robert Basaza, Joy Batusa at HealthPartners (Uganda), and Dr. Peter Cowley. Meetings with scheme members and former members at Comboni, Mutolere, Bweyogerere, and Luwero offered a keen perspective on the inner workings of CBHF schemes in Uganda from the consumer side. Dr. Francis Runumi, Commissioner for Health Services Planning, and Dr. Robert Basaza, Senior Health Planner, at the Ministry of Health have provided continual insight, significantly aiding the development of the assessment. Stephen Musau (Abt Associates Inc.), Livingstone Namarah (Uganda Community Health Financing Association), and Susan Scribner (Abt Associates) have provided consistent and valuable support, both technical and editorial, throughout this process.

  • Prevalence, Pattern and Perceptions of Cleft Lip and Cleft Palate Among
    Kesande et al. BMC Oral Health 2014, 14:104 http://www.biomedcentral.com/1472-6831/14/104 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Prevalence, pattern and perceptions of cleft lip and cleft palate among children born in two hospitals in Kisoro District, Uganda Teopista Kesande1†, Louis Mugambe Muwazi2†, Aisha Bataringaya2† and Charles Mugisha Rwenyonyi2*† Abstract Background: Cleft lip with or without cleft palate is one of the most common congenital anomalies that affect the oro-facial region. The aim of the study was to determine the period prevalence, pattern and perceptions of cleft lip and cleft palate in children born between 2005 and 2010 in two hospitals in Kisoro District, Uganda. Methods: The study involved a retrospective review of medical records of mothers who delivered live babies between January 2005 and December 2010 in Kisoro Hospital and St. Francis Hospital, Mutolere in Kisoro District. Key informant interviews of mothers (n = 20) of the children with cleft lip and/or clip palate and selected medical staff (n = 24) of the two hospitals were carried out. The data were analysed using descriptive statistics. Results: Over the 6 year period, 25,985 mothers delivered live babies in Kisoro Hospital (n = 13,199) and St. Francis Hospital, Mutolere (n = 12,786) with 20 babies having oro-facial clefts. The overall period prevalence of the clefts was 0.77/1,000 live births. Sixty percent (n = 12) of children had combined cleft lip and palate and the same proportion had clefts on the left side of the face. More boys were affected than girls: 13 versus 7.

    DATA FOR THE BOSS: EVIDENCE OF NON-USE OF HEALTH MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM 2(1) 3-12 UMU Press 2007 THEME ONE: MANAGEMENT OF HEALTH SERVICES DATA FOR THE BOSS: EVIDENCE OF NON-USE OF HEALTH MANAGEMENT INFORMATION SYSTEM (HMIS) DATA IN BUFUMBIRA EAST HEALTH SUB-DISTRICT, KISORO DISTRICT Nsekuye Paschal, Community Health Department, St. Francis Mutolere Hospital, Kisoro, Uganda Abstract A goal of the health management information system (HMIS) is to provide reliable, comprehensive information about the health system to health managers, to enable them take decisions that will improve the services provided to the consumers. Whereas HMIS quality concerns like the accuracy, completeness and timeliness of reports have been more commonly assessed and reported about in a number of studies, relatively less documentation is found on the actual utilisation of the information generated from HMIS reports. Yet, the HMIS is not an end in itself but just a tool to inform managers and enable them take informed and timely decisions. This study assessed the utilisation of HMIS data for decision making at the grassroots level in Bufumbira East Health Sub-District (HSD) of Kisoro District. It was found that HMIS data were not used for decision making at the point of collection and that the HMIS was dogged by many problems like few dedicated staff. The staff lacked sensitization on the HMIS and were not trained in completing the reports and data analysis. Lower level units submitted their data directly to the district bypassing the HSD. The HMIS was not planned for and lacked funding and stationery. HMIS functioning was not a subject for support supervision and there was only verbal feedback from the district level.

  • ICT in Education in Uganda
    SURVEY OF ICT AND EDUCATION IN AFRICA: Uganda Country Report ICT in Education in Uganda by Glen Farrell June 2007 Source: World Fact Book1 Please note: This short Country Report, a result of a larger infoDev-supported Survey of ICT in Education in Africa, provides a general overview of current activities and issues related to ICT use in education in the country. The data presented here should be regarded as illustrative rather than exhaustive. ICT use in education is at a particularly dynamic stage in Africa; new developments and announcements happening on a daily basis somewhere on the continent. Therefore, these reports should be seen as “snapshots” that were current at the time they were taken; it is expected that certain facts and figures presented may become dated very quickly. The findings, interpretations and conclusions expressed herein are entirely those of the author(s) and do not necessarily reflect the view of infoDev, the Donors of infoDev, the World Bank and its affiliated organizations, the Board of Executive Directors of the World Bank or the governments they represent. The World Bank cannot guarantee the accuracy of the data included in this work. The boundaries, colors, denominations, and other information shown on any map in this work do not imply on the part of the World Bank any judgment of the legal status of any territory or the endorsement or acceptance of such boundaries. It is expected that individual Country Reports from the Survey of ICT and Education in Africa will be updated in an iterative process over time based on additional research and feedback received through the infoDev web site.
