The ACCESS Programme aims at understanding and improving access to prompt and effective malaria treatment in rural Tanzania with a set of integrated interventions targeting both users and providers. The aim of this article is to evaluate the programme's impact on the community and health facility burden of malaria and to investigate the value of community-based reporting for routine malaria control programme monitoring.
