Training & On-Site Coaching:

• Conduct one-on-one and small group training sessions with PPMVs covering mRDT testing protocol, image capture via WhatsApp, barcode scanning, and the incentive redemption process.

Data Collection Support:

• Support PPMVs in achieving consistent, high-quality mRDT image submissions and patient survey completions in line with programme targets.

• Verify data quality visually during visits — checking that test images meet AI-interpretability standards before submission.

Mystery Shopping & Compliance Verification:

• Conduct unannounced or scheduled mystery shopping visits to assess PPMV compliance with testing protocols, correct use of mRDTs, and accuracy of reported submissions.
• Document observations using standard templates and submit findings to the Project Officer for review and action.
• Flag providers exhibiting potential gaming behaviours (e.g. duplicate submissions, test kit reuse) to the Project Officer immediately.
