The African Health Markets for Equity (AHME) Initiative took place in
Ghana and Kenya for seven years beginning in 2012. AHME applied four
linked interventions to increase access and use of quality healthcare for
common childhood and adult illnesses, working with private providers in
peri-urban areas. The four interventions included social franchsing,
quality accreditation, business loans and training, and support for
empanellment with the national health insurance scheme in each country.
The qualitative study of AHME looked at a number of components of the
overall intervention, including access and use of services, particularly
among low income populations. Our findings on the priorities of patients
at AHME sites gives insights into what mattered most to patients, and ways
in which the AHME initiative did and did not address those priorities
effectively.

Restrictions within our consent forms prohibit the sharing of transcripts
or data from qualitative interviews outside of research study team
members. As a result, we attach here the consent forms and survey tools
used, but not the collected data. Minor changes occured to forms over
differnt rounds of collection and so multiple versions of forms are
included reflecting this.
