Description:

Treating tuberculosis (TB) disease benefits not only the individual patient but the community as a whole. Thus, any health care provider undertaking treatment of a patient with TB, whether a public health or private practitioner, is assuming a public health function that includes the responsibility for not only prescribing an appropriate regimen but also ensuring the patient’s adherence to the regimen until treatment is completed.
