Opportunities and challenges for evidence-informed HIV-noncommunicable disease integrated care policies and programs

Abstract

Policymakers in Malawi, Kenya, South Africa and Swaziland have considered integration of NCD and HIV care but a lack of robust evidence hampers large-scale implementation of HIV/NCD integration. It is crucial for SSA Ministries of Health and throughout low-and-middle-income countries to utilize existing opportunities and advocate for evidence-informed HIV/NCD integration strategies.
