SQUEAC (Semi- Quantitative Evaluation of Access and Coverage) uses a two-stage screening test model:
STAGE 1: Identify areas of probable low and high coverage, and reasons for coverage failure using routine programme data, already available data, quantitative data that may be collected with little additional work, and anecdotal data. Group discussion led by local staff
STAGE 2: Confirm the location of areas of high and low coverage and the reasons for coverage failure identified in Stage 1 using small-area surveys.
