HIV programmes are achieving significant scale, even as external financing plateaus. Maximising achievement from identification to viral suppression is key to epidemic control and reaching global 95-95-95 goals. Cost and technical efficiency analyses can help programs understand why losses occur along the cascade, which tactics prevent losses, and additional investments required for cost-efficient solutions.
