Healthcare Infrastructure and Resource Barriers to Preventing Mother-to-Child Transmission of HIV in Ghana: Insights from a Qualitative Study
The study underscores the need for context-aware health policy development. Effective priority setting and benefits package design must be informed by frontline insights, taking into account infrastructural deficits, human resource constraints, and systemic bottlenecks. Aligning national initiatives, such as the StEPS programme, with operational realities is essential for enhancing PMTCT outcomes.
