Risks in supplies of SLDs
www.aidsalliance.org.ua
Round 9. Decrease the burden of TB in PLWHA Registration in Ukraine: only registered medicines can be used; not all
GDF eligible manufacturers wish to register. At that, registration is highly
bureaucratic process, which requires around 6 months.
When manufacturers’ contracts with GDF and/or ERP validity run out
manufacturers lose their eligibility with GDF; this seems to happen often and
it looks unpredictable. Consequences may be as serious as treatment
interruption and failure of the program.
Due to new WHO treatment recommendations, changes in PR’s plans and
other reasons final approval of the medicines list and quantities is
dramatically delayed, which delays procurement and treatment.

Challenges
Highly vertical heath care system of Ukraine is a major obstacle for HIV/TB
integration.
Frequent changes of management in the government leadership
Lack of cooperation between AIDS and TB services: information sharing,
joint planning, M&E performance measures and indicators.
Access to quality-assured second-line drugs
Lack of adequate financing
Stigma and discrimination

Conclusion
Health care reform is needed in the area of HIV and TB and drug treatment.
Integration of these services should be replicated throughout the country to
provide better access for MARPs.
With the leadership from the Government a functional coordination
mechanism between all these services must be in place.
Ensure quality-assured second-line drugs
State financing is a cornerstone of sustainability
Further develop and mobilize civil society to demand accountability and to
address stigma and discrimination
