Index testing contacts were defined as sexual contacts or biological children of PLHIV who were elicited and offered HTS
TPT completions Number of ART patients who completed a course of TB preventive therapy during the reporting period [for continuous IPT programs, this includes the patients who have completed the first 6 months of isoniazid preventive therapy (IPT)]
Expected TPT completions Number of ART patients who are expected to complete a course of TB preventive therapy during the reporting period (for programs using continuous IPT, this includes only the patients who are scheduled to complete the first 6 months of therapy)
Viral load coverage Number of PLHIV with documented HIV viral load test results during the last 12 months divided by the number of PLHIV eligible for viral load testing
Viral load suppression Number of PLHIV with viral load test results < 1000 cp/ml during the previous 12 months divided by the number with any HIV viral load test result
