Partially done

Printed page 265 9. Agency for International Development

“The Trump Administration implemented critical updates of PEPFAR’s systems for the collection and reporting of data to increase transparency and hold funded partners and overseas missions accountable. The next conservative Administration should apply these reforms to all of USAID’s global health programs.”

What has happened

  1. Partially done

    The America First Global Health Strategy takes PEPFAR's reporting system as its evidence base - it is the system that showed only about 40 percent of PEPFAR's budget reaching service delivery - and extends data discipline across all U.S. health foreign assistance: aligning on "the minimum set of data fields that need to be collected", data governance frameworks, long-term data-sharing agreements covering "emerging threat surveillance, program management, and legislatively required reporting", and performance benchmarks in every bilateral memorandum of understanding that gate the release of future funding. `partial` and not `done`: the direction is integration into each country's own health information systems rather than extension of PEPFAR's U.S.-run reporting, and USAID's global health programs no longer exist as a separate object - they are run by State's Bureau of Global Health Security and Diplomacy.
