Rewards disbursement is conditional to DQA results. DQA is intended to validate reported coverage figures. DQA is also an important tool to improve the reporting system.

ACCESS MILESTONE: With successful DQAs and improved performance, countries will get continued funding and be able to further increase coverage.
