Dear HIFA team,

Warm greetings.

I hope you are well. I am writing to kindly follow up on the commentary I submitted on 17 November titled “Invisible Barriers: Informal Costs, Staffing, and Quality in Maternal Care.” I wanted to check whether it was received and if any further information is required from my side for consideration or publication on the HIFA platform. [*see note below]

Thank you very much for your time and support.

With warm regards,

Dr Suren Kanayan
