| Comments: | 18 private clinics and 3 public Non-NTP facilities were visited and assessed in the district of Rawalpindi.
I
n each clinic, the healthcare provider was interviewed about:
– The frequency of the visits of the field officers per month
– Whether instructions were given to refer cases to the TBMU or to register the current practice without modifications
– Definition of TB suspect, diagnostic tests for TB, Anti-TB treatment
– How confirmed diagnosis was made
Then the Capture TB register was evaluated concerning the completeness and accuracy of data, and methods used to confirm diagnosis. At the TBMU, the mission evaluated whether the status of notification of the detected TB cases at the NTP was verified and non-notified cases were registered in a separate register. Telephone interviews were done with 5 DTC and 5 private providers from 5 other districts. The details are in the enclosed briefing presentation.
