Private-sector Access to Testing for Health Sustainability

NCT06820697

Not Yet RecruitingNA

Sponsor: University of California, San Francisco

Conditions: HIV Prevention

Interventions: Low HIVST kit subsidy, High HIVST kit subsidy

Countries: Tanzania

New and innovative strategies are urgently needed to increase the uptake of HIV prevention and sexual and reproductive health services among adolescent girls and young women (AGYW) in sub-Saharan Africa. To ensure the real-world sustainability of free distribution of HIV self-test kits to AGYW by private drug shops and pharmacies, investigators will rigorously test supply-side subsidy structures for shopkeepers' provision of HIV-self test kits to AGYW combined with prosocial motivational supports. The combination of non-monetary and monetary support structures aims to emulate real-world health financing models for public-private partnerships and ultimately aims to improve equity in access to critical prevention services for AGYW at scale.
