Description In order to improve febrile case management in the private sector, in coordination with the relevant National Malaria Control Programs, a consortium of partners including Population Services International (PSI) and Malaria Consortium (MC) are implementing a five-country project funded by UNITAID. This survey is conducted to assess the level of reported RDT use among patients seeking treatment in the private sector using Exit interview methodology. Prior the full implementation of the pilot phase in Tamatave, a baseline exit interview will be conducted among people 18 and above, not pregnant, seeking treatment for fever. All outlets in Tamatave I and II including facility, pharmacy and drug shop will be approached for this study. An outlet is eligible for this study if there is a malaria RDT or microscopy available the day of the first visit. About 100 outlets will be visited and approached in Tamatave. In each eligible outlet one interviewer will stay during two days at outlet level to interview all clients and the provider responsible for RDT at the end of the second day.
