Abstract
"The UK Department for International Development (DFID) funded the Initiative on Public-Private Partnerships for Health (IPPPH), part of the Global Forum for Health Research, to conduct a pilot study in Uganda in preparation for a larger study or studies. This study can stand alone but is part of an ongoing IPPPH programme of activities related to the overall goal of assessing public-private collaboration to improve access to pharmaceuticals for those disadvantaged by poverty. 1. Introduction Pilot Study Terms of Reference To assess the health and health systems impact in Uganda of public-private partnerships for improving access to pharmaceuticals in relation to leprosy, lymphatic filariasis, onchocerciasis, sleeping sickness, and HIV/AIDS. Specifically, to examine issues of ownership, integration, coordination, implementation and impact, with a particular focus on the unique strengths and problems of these access PPPs as distinct from other comparable programmes where drugs are competitively procured."
