Description

Service Availability Mapping (SAM) in Uganda was conducted by Uganda��s Ministry of Health (MoH) resource centre and the World Health Organization (WHO) in March 2004. The goal was to collect information on the availability and distribution of key health services by interviewing the district director of health services and his/her team in all 56 districts. SAM provided baseline monitoring information for the scale-up of key HIV/AIDS-related services such as antiretroviral therapy (ART), prevention of mother-to-child transmission (PMTCT) of HIV, and counseling and HIV testing.
