Activity 2

The Systems for Improved Access to Pharmaceuticals and Services (SIAPS) Program, led by MSH, works to create stronger health systems to ensure health care for all. At least one third of the world's population lacks regular access to medicines. Even when medicines are available, they are not always prescribed, dispensed or used appropriately. Often they are too expensive. SIAPS is designed to strengthen the management of essential medicines and health supplies so that more people can access the health care they need. MSH is committed to making pharmaceuticals and related health services more accessible, more affordable, and of higher quality, but also ensuring more effective pharmaceutical services so that more people can access life-saving treatment for diseases such as tuberculosis, malaria and childhood diarrhea.In the past year, the SIAPS program, funded by the US Agency for International Development (USAID) and working with local partners, strengthened country pharmaceutical supply chains in 21 countries in Africa, Asia, Europe, Latin America and the Caribbean, the Middle East, and Oceania. SIAPS also worked with local partners to develop strong systems for health financing, human resources, governance, information, service delivery, and pharmacovigilance.

Activity 3

For people with HIV/AIDS in developing countries, cost-effective, reliable, secure and sustainable supply chains can save millions of lives. For more than six years, the Supply Chain Management System (SCMS) has been saving lives through stronger supply chains. SCMS, managed by MSH and JSI (The Partnership for Supply Chain Management) was established by the US President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR) to ensure a reliable, cost-effective and secure supply of high-quality medicines and health products for HIV/AIDS prevention, care and treatment. As of June 30, 2013, an estimated 2.5 million patients received life-saving antiretroviral medicines through SCMS. Seventy-six percent of antiretrovirals funded by PEPFAR were safely delivered by SCMS. SCMS also helped avert medicines and supply stock-outs in 20 countries. SCMS recently won a World Bank Science of Delivery Award.SCMS, administered by the US Agency for International Development, provides quality, best-value, health care products to those who need them; deploys innovative solutions to assist programs to enhance their supply chain capacity; and ensures accurate supply chain information.For more information, visit http://scms.pfscm.org/scms
