The ProCCM intervention had five key components: (1) active case detection by community health workers (CHWs), (2) CHW doorstep care, (3) monthly dedicated supervision for CHWs, (4) removal of user fees and (5) primary care infrastructure improvements and staff capacity building.
Using a cluster-based, population-weighted sampling methodology, independent cross-sectional household surveys were conducted at baseline and at 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72 and 84 months later in the intervention area.
