Western Cape 2,728 5,728 11,072 21,084 37,078<br />

Note: These figures total to a slightly higher number in each year than those in Table 16.8, based<br />

on slightly different assumptions in some provinces on the number of <strong>AIDS</strong> patients who will be<br />

eligible <strong>for</strong> the programme.<br />

The total number of <strong>plan</strong>ned cases on treatment falls within the range of likely total ARV<br />

cases estimated in the JHTTT report “100% Coverage” scenario, namely between 918,000<br />

<strong>and</strong> 1,200,000 cases by 2007/08.<br />

Laboratory Monitoring <strong>for</strong> Antiretroviral Therapy<br />

The revised <strong>care</strong> <strong>and</strong> treatment protocol <strong>for</strong> diagnostic monitoring of patients on ARVs has<br />

been costed using revised prices negotiated with the National Health Laboratory Service.<br />

The costs per patient per year of the monitoring protocols accompanying each of the drug<br />

regimens are presented in Table 16.10a:<br />
