KEY TAKEAWAYS

1. The District TB center (DTC) in Koppal has been practicing the TB Free village adoption model by engaging private practitioners at a community level.

2. To ease the burden on the care seekers, the private providers visit the patients directly in the village and engage in case detection, treatment monitoring and awareness campaigns.

3. The Koppal DTC plans on expanding this innovation by including pharmacists and more villages.
