Thanks Wilson for sharing. I hope kenya  approarch can assist to address
your need. In addressing population as denominator you require to consider
the aggregation level either you want health facilities to input their
catchment population and aggreated upwards to get national aggregate. Note:-
this approach require careful determination of individual catchment
population. In Kenya health facilities can input catchment population based
on previous year coverage of service(contribution to the lowest catchment
area per census figures) the contibution is applied to near year population.
NB. The data on pupulation is not aggredated upwards except District
population which can aggregate upwaards to minimums errors or rounding ups.

Also in kenya we have CHIS which use actual population because CHEWS visit
every household and he/she has actual records so there is no need of using
projection/estimate but the population parameters is same.
