Family planning services in South Africa are now provided by the provincial and local authorities through clinics, hospitals, day hospitals, and mobile clinics. Both service providers and recipients have identified a range of problems with the current family planning service delivery system. Community-based distribution of contraceptives (CBD) has become a generally accepted alternative to clinic-based programmes for the distribution of contraceptives in many developing countries. The piloting of community-based distribution of contraceptives project in Khayelitsha, Cape Town / South Africa, is being undertaken by The Planned Parenthood Association of South Africa (a non-governmental organization), in collaboration with two other NGOs who run preventive and promotive health projects, SACLA and Zibonele. The objective of this study was to perform a cost analysis of alternative methods for providing effective contraceptive services. Clinic-based services for contraceptives, day hospital-based contraceptive services, and community-based distribution (CBD) of contraceptives programmes were evaluated. The following items were costed: salaries, contraceptives, buildings, equipment, vehicle, transport, repairs & maintenance, utilities, initial training, short-in-service training, and consultancy. 2014-11-11T12:52:31Z 2014-11-11T12:52:31Z 1997 Master Thesis Masters MCom http://hdl.handle.net/11427/9548 eng application/pdf Health Economics Unit Faculty of Health Sciences University of Cape Town
