For the past 27 years, the health sector has been operating under the Health, Nutrition and Population Sector Program (HNPSP). Through this sector program, procurement and all other activities in the health sector were carried out under various operational plans.
The fourth sector program ended in June 2024. Following that, the interim government decided to phase out the sector program and formulated an exit plan.
