DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH AND
HUMAN SERVICES
Announcement of Availability of Funds
for a Cooperative Agreement To
Improve and Sustain the Leadership
and Management Capacity and To
Improve Operations and Delivery of
Quality Health Care Within the Rabia
Balkhi Women’s Hospital
Department of Health and
Human Services, Office of the Secretary,
Office of Public Health and Science,
Office of Global Health Affairs.
Announcement Type: Cooperative
Agreement—FY 2005 Initial
Announcement.
Funding Opportunity Number: OGHA
05–018.
OMB Catalog of Federal Domestic
Assistance: TBD, In Process.
AGENCY:
Authority: Section 103(a)(1); Section
103(a)(7) of Public Law 107–327; Public
Health Service Act, Section 307.
SUMMARY: The Office of Global Health
Affairs (OGHA) announces that an
estimated $1.5 million in fiscal year
(FY) 2005 funds are available for one (1)
cooperative agreement to strengthen
leadership, healthcare administration
and facility management and to improve
operations and improve health care
delivery at Rabia Balkhi Women’s
Hospital (RBH) in Kabul, Afghanistan.
This effort is a joint undertaking by the
U.S. Department of Health and Human
Services (HHS) and the Afghanistan
Ministry of Public Health (MOPH). The
goal of this project is to create equitable
and high quality care at Rabia Balkhi
Women’s Hospital by developing
effective leadership and management

and improving operations. The funding
will provide essential material resources
within budgetary limitations for patient
care, operations, facility management
and for grant activities related to
leadership and management
development at RBH. A Memorandum
of Understanding (MOU) between the
grantee and the Afghan MOPH will
detail the differentiated responsibilities
of the awardee toward RBH and the
conditions under which the MOPH will
transfer operational and logistical
authority and responsibility for
management and operations of RBH to
the awardee. Alongside this support,
through a separate, ongoing cooperative
agreement, HHS is currently providing
support for staff development and
continuing education at RBH, and the
Department of Defense is providing
approximately $1.4M in infrastructure
upgrades. This new cooperative
agreement is not anticipated to involve
training of the clinical staff at RBH, but
should include limited training and
capacity-building of administrative or
executive management staff.
HHS, in partnership with other
relevant United States Government
(USG) agencies anticipates involvement
in the development, administration and
oversight of this hospital management
improvement program. The program
will be approved initially for a threeyear period. It is estimated that
approximately $1.5 million (including
indirect costs) will be available in the
first year. Funding for the cooperative
agreement in subsequent years is
contingent upon the availability of
funds.
DATES: Application Availability:
September 6, 2005. Optional Letter of
Intent due by 5 p.m. e.t. September 13,
2005.
Application due by 5 p.m. e.t.:
September 21, 2005.
Award date: September 30, 2005.
ADDRESSES: Application kits may be
requested from, and applications
submitted to: Ms. Karen Campbell,
Director, Office of Grants Management,
Office of Public Health and Science
(OPHS), HHS, 1101 Wootton Parkway,
Suite 550, Rockville, MD 20852.
I. Funding Opportunity Description
Purpose of the Agreement
Afghanistan has one of the highest
maternal mortality rates (MMR) in the
world with a rate of 1,600 maternal
deaths per 100,000 live births. In
Badakhshan Province, the MMR is
6,500, the highest maternal mortality
rate ever reported globally. Preventable
complications related to childbirth
cause more than 85 percent of deaths

among women of childbearing age in
Afghanistan. An estimated one in four
children dies before reaching their fifth
birthday.
The government of Afghanistan has
established the improvement in women
and child health as one of its highest
priorities. Hospital management within
Afghanistan is of great concern to the
MOPH and the international donor
community. Competent hospital and
clinic administration is critical to the
efficient and effective provision of
health care, particularly in resourceconstrained environments. Afghanistan
is recovering from more than twenty
years of civil unrest and war. This
period has taken its toll on the quality
of the entire spectrum of health care
delivery, public health and health
professional education.
The public hospitals in Afghanistan,
including those that provide critical
care to women and children, face
overwhelming problems in the areas of
staffing, training, equipment, supplies
and pharmaceuticals. One area of
increasing concern is hospital
leadership and management. Without
effective and efficient administration,
investments in the problem areas will
have little probability of success.
Without functioning hospital support
services, such as patient record-keeping,
human resources, financial
management, housekeeping, laundry,
physical plant and grounds
maintenance, security and many other
departments that allow a hospital to
function well, the physicians, nurses
and other clinical staff are not able to
provide quality care.
Rabia Balkhi Hospital was one of the
referral hospitals for women under the
Taliban and was declared the only
women’s hospital in 1997. It is located
adjacent to a major bazaar in District 2
of Kabul and consists of a large twostory building and two ancillary
buildings within a courtyard. It has a
theoretical in-patient capacity of 212 to
250 beds of which 80 to 100 are
designated for Gynecology and
Obstetrics. Approximately 25 to 30
deliveries occur each day and
approximately 7,500 to 11,000 babies
are delivered there each year. The
hospital sees approximately 300 to 400
out patients daily. It is a referral
hospital with no formal relations with
other maternity departments or
pediatric hospitals. Its main partner for
sick newborns is Indira Gandhi
Children’s Hospital, also in Kabul.
A study of hospitals in Afghanistan by
the Embassy of France (2002) indicated
there were 95 physicians and 100
paramedics at RBH while MOPH data
(2002) stated there were 265 health care
