HAPT User Guide

The new online HAPT is a new generation of tool that aims to assist countries at various stages of the HA production process. It provides step-by-step guidance for producing and reviewing HA studies. It increases result quality and applicability and offers the flexibility needed to meet future needs. Equipped with advanced technologies, the newest version of HAPT handles large datasets, manages disparate expenditure data files, incorporates interactive flow charts for visualizing funding flows, and features a survey function optimizing data collection. Further, it includes a survey data weighting option and defines distinct user roles and permissions, which allows HA team members to work on the same study at the same time. An integrated auditing function facilitates review and correction of double counting, and an enhanced data mapping feature automatically matches International Classification of Diseases codes to the 2011 SHA Disease Classification, eliminating the manual conversion of codes before data import. For users with low internet bandwidth, HAPT has an offline version with similar functionality. These and other developments eliminate the need to use other tools for HA production.

The objective of this document is to give comprehensive overview of HAPT. This manual is designed to serve as a guide to help country teams produce HA estimations using HAPT. It walks users through each of the tool’s steps.
