to make SRH medications and supplies more accessible to providers and

• Improve access to SRH services; e.g., decentralize distribution of SRH
medications and supplies from the national to regional level (to prevent
bottlenecks); deliver services at people’s home when possible; and facilitate
multi-month dispensing of SRH pharmaceuticals.
• Adopt innovative models of care and services, such as telehealth, and as much
as possible, prevent diversion of resources and staffs away from SRH.
