Maternal & Child Health Integrated Program (MCHIP)

FUNDING SOURCE
USAID

PROJECT DESCRIPTION
The Maternal and Child Health Integrated program (MCHIP) is USAID's flagship maternal, neonatal and child health (MNCH) program, which focuses on reducing maternal, neonatal and child mortality. MCHIP is designed to accelerate progress toward achieving the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) in USAID's 30 maternal and child health (MCH) priority countries over five years. Building on deep program experience, MCHIP addresses the major causes of mortality, including malnutrition, in the 30 priority countries, where more than 70% o the world's maternal, newborn and child deaths occur. This MCHIP partnership works together with countries to determine the most effective strategies for reducing maternal, neonatal and child deaths and malnutrition based on their individual needs and circumstances. MCHIP supports USAID's strategic approach for advancing maternal and child health by addressing the barriers to accessing and using focused, evidence-based interventions along the MNCH continuum of care (including family planning) from pre-pregnancy to age five, and by linking communities, first-level facilities, and hospitals. Specifically, MCHIP: Implements high impact, effective interventions at scale, based on the country context and using global and local data Uses innovative approaches to achieve program goals including performance-based financing, private sector franchising, community insurance schemes, and public-private partnerships Builds global consensus and sustained government commitment to support results-oriented high-impact, effective MNCH interventions Influences local programs to incorporate effective, feasible, high-impact interventions and approaches based on global evidence Maximizes the use of local programs supported by MCHIP2 to advance field-based learning and innovation Strategically integrates critical interventions into existing services and wrap-around programs, emphasizing close-to-client contact and ensuring "no missed opportunities" Using data driven priority setting approaches, MCHIP helps countries determine which innovations yield the most impact in reaching the MDGs and supports capacity building and health systems development to take those interventions to scale. Parallel to strengthening central and district level health teams, MCHIP considers communities, households and individuals not only as recipients of health services, but as an integral part of health services implementation. MCHIP brings together a partnership of organizations with demonstrated success in reducing maternal, newborn and child mortality rates and malnutrition. JSI leads MCHIP's work in the areas of child health, immunization, and pediatric HIV/AIDS. Other MCHIP partners include Jhpiego, Save the Children, PATH, PSI, Broadbranch and JHU IIP. MCHIP is the follow-on project to BASICS and IMMUNIZATIONbasics, other USAID global technical assistance projects which were also implemented by JSI.
