Primary Health Care Reform Project (USAID)

During 2009, CHSR has continued working with Emerging Markets Group (EMG) on the 5-year USAID supported Primary Health Care Reform Project.  CHSR mainly contributed to the project’s research, monitoring and evaluation components.  Within this project, CHSR assessed the ASTP achievements to develop recommendations for the current Primary Health Care Reform Project.  The CHSR team has finished the baseline and follow-up primary care facilities assessments and client satisfaction surveys in Lori, Shirak, Kotayk, Tavush, Gegharkunik, Aragatsotn, Artashat, and Armavir marzes targeted by the PHCR Project in the first, second and third years, and the nationwide health household survey.  Overall, the CHSR/AUA team developed 18 reports during the project.  Currently, these reports are being translated into Armenian and prepared for publication.  The CHSR team has worked on the development of the MIS system and Performance Management Plan (PMP) for the entire project for the years 2006- 2010, and provided consultancy to the project regarding the design and data analysis of small-scale research periodically conducted by different teams in the project.
