Transcript of Mapping of HIV/AIDS Facilities in Maharashtra by Dr. C. A. K. Yesudian
What is SAM
• SAM is a country owned monitoring tool meeting the needs of multiple partners
• At national level, SAM is used to track equity between districts and identify major gaps in service availability
• At district level, SAM supports informed decision making and providing sub-national planners with the skills and tools required to map and monitor service and resources availability on a regular basis
• Disease specific programmes use SAM thus avoiding fragmentation and duplication
• SAM results are widely disseminated and used by health sector and civil society including other sectors
• National planners will be able to map all facilities and all other services on regular basis
Rapidly Map the HIV/AIDS specific services and resources in all the districts of Maharashtra.
Make this information available to decision makers, planners and managers at the Tehsil (sub-district) and health facility level and
Build the district level capacities to collect, analyze and produce maps using HealthMapper.
Objectives
The SAM tool is made up of two components:A census methodology including 2 questionnaires:- District Questionnaire- Facility Questionnaire
+The Health Mapper system:- Mapping Interface- Data ManagerTogether, these components make up an assessment and
monitoring tool for service and resource availability for HIV/AIDS and other services.
SAM Tools
Application
3. Data is analysed and thematic maps and graphs developed using HealthMapper
1. Data collected using questionnaires by field investigators
2. Data is uploaded in WHO’s HealthMapper application

Use of SAM Generated Maps State level planning: appropriately locating health
care facilities.
District and sub-district level: informed decision to deliver health services effectively.
Individual level: informed choice of health care facilities to meet the health needs.
Monitor quality of services and regulate health services.
Way Forward Integrate SAM with health system and its HMIS. Use GPS for locating services and hand held data collection
tools to achieve accuracy and speedier data collection. Generate capacities within health system to update data,
generate relevant maps and disseminate at all levels. Generate the managerial capacity of administrators to use
SAM as a decision making tool. Make available SAM in the public domain, so that it is used
beyond the government health system.
