Patient Management Resources:
The TB Patient Management Project was a DTBE-sponsored effort to collaborate with representatives from the National TB Controllers Association (NTCA) to assist in developing a solution for local and state health departments that need an information system to support the multitude of TB patient management activities. The project culminated in the development of a Tuberculosis Patient Management Applications Assessment Guide. The Guide is available at URL http://www.infotechnet.org/ntca/
