Financing Voluntary Medical Male Circumcision in Namibia

Jessica Scranton

A new primer describes how the SHOPS project worked with the public and private sectors in Namibia to expand coverage of voluntary medical male circumcision. The project helped standardize the fee for the procedure so it could be covered by private insurance as an HIV preventive benefit. Namibia was the first country in the world to do so.

Read the primer.
