There is no general reason to think that therapeutic service coverage will be the same as SFP. Although information pertinent to the SFP may be gained during a SQUEAC focusing on SAM coverage, an independent survey should be carried out to assess SFP coverage. CSAS, SQUEAC, SLEAC can be used for SFP coverage, but they require the use of house-to-house/door-to-door sampling. This is because the active and adaptive sampling method commonly used lacks case finding sensitivity for MAM cases (only the most severe cases of MAM tend to be detected). This means that we need to use a census type sample to find MAM cases.
