2. Rationale for Policy Formulation • Evidence of further reducing new HIV infections through “Test and Treat” or SUFA and global move towards earlier treatment • Implementing SUFA will help accelerating coverage of ART for those most in need • Joint rapid assessment early 2013 in collaboration among MoH, NAC, WHO, UNAIDS and UNICEF • to obtain information for developing a roadmap to accelerate expansion of ARVs for HIV treatment and prevention in Indonesia • To assess barriers to diagnosis and treatment • to review and learn current existing good practices • to find opportunities to further accelerate expansion and coverage of ART • Mathematical modelling to look at the impact and effectiveness of program that is expected from rapidly scaling-up ART in Indonesia • Followed by national consultation meeting in March 2013
Mathematical Modeling on Impact of ART coverage on numbers of new HIV infection The impact on numbers of new HIV infection would be modest at current levels of ART coverage (the dark blue, red lines and purple) Impact will be significantly observed by increasing coverage of those treatment-eligible persons of 80%. (The green and light blue lines )
3. Policy ImplementationContinuum of Comprehensive HIV Services Framework (LKB) Indonesia is intensifying the response by strengthening the continuum of HIV-STI comprehensive care, a service delivery model was on going Addressing the prevention, care and treatment comprehensively by increased participation of all related stakeholders especially the community members at district level & HIV service available at PHC
Introduction of Strategic Use of ARVs (SUFA) through “LKB” • Objectives: • To significantly increase HIV testing and ART coverage • To optimize the prevention impact of ARVs by offering ART regardless of CD4 level to key affected populations and sero-discordant couples • To strengthen the involvement and ownership by CSO groups. • Strategies • 1. Expanding HIV diagnosis • 2. Effective enrollment and retention in HIV care • 3. Build on effective efforts that already exist, including the LKB (CoC)
Phased Approach • Roadmap of “Rapid Scale Up of ART and Strategic Use of ARVs (SUFA) through LKB” • 75 priority districts • phased implementation and scale-up approach • started in 13 districts (3 from Tanah Papua and 8 from the remainder of Indonesia) in October 2013. • rolled-out in 63 additional districts during April till December 2014. • Minister of Health Regulation No. 21/2013 • PITC approach to increase HIV test and counseling • ART regardless CD4 count to KAPs (CSW, MSM, transgender IDUs), TB-HIV patients, Hep-HIV patients, and HIV infected pregnant women
Accelerating getting to Zero New Infections (and reduce mortality) Initiate ART when the CD4 under 350 Start ART regardless of the CD4 Key Affected Populations: IDU, MSM, TG, SW Prisoners

4. Programmatic Questions - Challenges • For T&T as part of LKB/SUFA to have an impact in Indonesia it would need to be accessible/acceptable and reach all key affected groups. • T&T/SUFA as in the Permenkes 21 raises programmatic questions specially about how to improve the HIV treatment cascade: • How best to control STI ? • How best to expand HIV testing and reach those KAPs? • How bes decentralization of HIV services implemented • How best to retain them on treatment • How SUFA will affect adherence and risk behaviors? • Effective community-based interventions involving KAPs are fundamentalin the success of LKB/SUFA • In a decentralized context local ownership by policy/decision makers is key for adoption of policy and financial sustainability
