Demand within the public health system, already constrained by human resource scarcities and budgetary and infrastructural challenges, is expected to increase given the estimate that only 56% of an estimated 7.1 million HIV positive people in South Africa are currently on ART (UNAIDS, 2017). Technical assistance (TA) interventions are deployed to support in-house government services to optimise services, however, rigorous studies to evaluate the impact of TA strategies are scarce.enAssessmentPharmaceutical managementPrimary health careSouth AfricaStockoutsUniversity of Western Cape
