With an aim to galvanize private hospitals from across Delhi-NCR to contribute to the National Tuberculosis Elimination Programme (NTEP), and expand the impact of Mission TB Free India, Medanta and other private hospitals in association with the Centre, under the guidance of Central TB Division, Ministry of Health and Family Welfare organized a multi-stakeholder event engaging private hospitals and state health officials.
They were encouraged to support the national initiative by adopting the ‘Active Case Finding’ model of TB detection. Towards the Pradhan Mantri TB Mukt Bharat Abhiyan.
The objective of this engagement program is to encourage private hospitals to actively contribute to TB screening and assist the state in bridging the gap in TB care services. This will further strengthen the robust NTEP that works to detect TB in unscreened population pockets and establish linkages between identified patients and government treatment services.
Speaking on occasion, Rajender P Joshi, deputy director general (TB), Central TB division said, “We have made significant progress in strengthening the infrastructure for TB treatment.
