This analysis has several strengths and limitations. The selection of states across geographic regions of India provides for broader understanding of the need, opportunities, and challenges in transitioning from school-based deworming to cMDA for STH. The three different data collection activities used in this study provided the opportunity to triangulate data and identify areas of strong evidence. While the study includes a relatively small sample size of state-level NTD personnel, saturation was reached across relevant state-level experts.
