Estimators for infrastructure cost of health facilities

Infrastructure Unit Systems Support (IUSS) is a structured collaboration between the National Department of Health, the Development Bank of Southern Africa (DBSA), the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research (CSIR) and other stakeholders. IUSS aims to optimise the acquisition and management of South Africa's public healthcare infrastructure. To this end, IUSS provides numerous resources openly.

The Estimators for infrastructure cost of health facilities (listed below) provide infrastructure cost models for new and existing clinics, hospital, community day centres (CDC), and community health centres (CHC).
