Community-based therapeutic care for severe acute malnutrition is a cost-effective strategy in Nepal. The approach focuses on early identification and treatment through a simplified medical protocol with ready-to-use therapeutic food that can be administered at community and household level, rather than medical facilities. Experiences from other countries indicate that higher treatment coverage, recovery rates, and sustainability can be achieved through the CTC approach.

Abstract

Community-based therapeutic care for severe acute malnutrition is a cost-effective strategy in Nepal. The approach focuses on early identification and treatment through a simplified medical protocol with ready-to-use therapeutic food that can be administered at community and household level, rather than medical facilities. Experiences from other countries indicate that higher treatment coverage, recovery rates, and sustainability can be achieved through the CTC approach.
