HSDF recently provided technical support to the Q1 2026 State Oversight Committee (SOC) meeting, convened to review progress on the Basic Health Care Provision Fund (BHCPF) implementation. During the meeting, our team assisted with evidence-based discussions on PHC financing flows, facility performance, and system accountability.

The meeting reviewed monitoring findings from PHCs across 23 LGAs and highlighted strong Q1 performance, including full SOC compliance, high Direct Facility Funding (DFF) coverage, timely reporting, improved quality assessment scores, expansion of DFF to additional facilities, and adoption of the PHC-FMS platform.

Discussions also identified persistent financing challenges, including delays in BHCPF disbursements and the absence of state counterpart funding.

HSDF remains committed to strengthening PHC financing, accountability, and sustainable health system performance through technical assistance and improved financial tracking.
