4.1 Malaria control and Kala-azar elimination<br />
The main objectives, activities and reforms planned by <strong>NVBDCP</strong> for malaria<br />
control and Kala-azar elimination supported by the project are summarized<br />
below:<br />
4.1.1 Malaria Control<br />
1 Phased implementation focusing on high burden districts<br />
The <strong>NVBDCP</strong> will introduce the new policy for malaria diagnosis and<br />
treatment recommended by the 2007 Joint Monitoring Mission (JMM) in a<br />
phased manner, prioritizing States and districts with high Pf burden. Apart<br />
from 106 districts in North-eastern States, which are already covered by<br />
GFATM support for malaria, 93 districts in the country with high Pf malaria<br />
incidence have been selected for the proposed project.<br />
2 Improved access to malaria case management<br />
All project districts will first be stratified according to the risk of Pf malaria<br />
in each PHC block. In PHC blocks with Slide Falciparum Rate (SFR) >= 2%,<br />
all fever patients will have an RDK for Pf, except if a microscopy result can<br />
