## What the grant funds

The Award Ceiling for Year 1 is 0 (none). CDC anticipates an Approximate Total Fiscal Year Funding amount of $7,000,000 for Year 1, subject to the availability of funds.PEPFAR will continue to support Zambia’s national health information systems (HIS) to digitize health interactions for people living with HIV/AIDS (PLHIV) and facilitate improved quality of care and health outcomes. A key needed focus is to facilitate skills transfer to the Ministry of Health (MOH), and local institutions, as a last-mile step towards the sustainability of implementation beyond epidemic control. The recipient(s) will be responsible for engaging the MOH, and other stakeholders, to ensure systems refinement and innovations are aligned with national HIV/TB priorities. The support involves the maintenance of HIS, including the scale of an electronic health record (EHR) to all provinces in its full deployment package. Continued maintenance of the MOH’s national data warehouse (NDW), systems interoperability, and health information exchange (HIE), aim to advance the production and timely utilization of information in response to national HIV/TB priorities.
