 HIV Service Provision Assessments (SPA)

The standard Service Provision Assessment (SPA) survey includes some questions on HIV/AIDS. MEASURE DHS developed a special HIV/AIDS SPA in 2004 to meet the needs of the President’s Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief. The HIV/AIDS SPA focuses on the delivery of preventive care and support services. It provides data on all indicators in the President’s Emergency Plan, including voluntary counseling and testing, prevention of maternal-to-child transmission of HIV/AIDS (PMTCT), and antiretroviral therapy.
