The study will be conducted as a randomized, two-arm trial of either conditional (control) or systematic (intervention) follow-up advice for non-severe febrile children who after assessment by the HEWs, are not classified as having malaria, pneumonia, diarrhea, or other symptoms requiring referral. In brief, caregivers of children who meet the above inclusion criteria will be counseled to follow one of two pathways (based on randomization at the health facility level). The control arm consists of a conditional follow-up visit, i.e. caregivers are counseled to return with their child to the HEW for a re-assessment only in cases when the child deteriorates or fever persists for more than 2 days. In contrast, caregivers in the intervention arm will be advised to have a systematic follow-up visit, i.e. caregivers of all children are counseled to return after three days, regardless of symptom resolution.
