TB Units (TBU) – Coordinate operational activities, case management, and reporting at the sub-district level. Hospitals and Health Facilities – Including DTC, CHC, PHC, and HFI, responsible for diagnosis, treatment, and clinical management. Patients– The primary beneficiaries, receiving continuous care, monitoring, and support throughout the treatment journey. Patients are identified through healthcare facilities or community outreach.

The app ensures continuous monitoring of each patient from diagnosis through treatment and up to the cured stage. The platform provides regular automated intimations to patients for laboratory tests, medication schedules, follow-up visits, and diagnosis updates. Multiple notification channels are supported, including: * DOTS Centers * SMS alerts * IVRS (automated voice calls) * Mobile app notifications Automated notifications are also sent to relevant stakeholders such as health facilities (HFS, HFI), TB Units, and DTOs to support coordinated health monitoring and timely interventions. Using patient clinical data, the system automatically generates health scores and calculates treatment dropout risks . These insights help healthcare workers and administrators identify high-risk cases early and take preventive action to improve treatment adherence and outcomes. The app offers robust reporting and analytics features, enabling the generation of weekly, monthly, quarterly, and yearly reports. These reports support performance tracking, program evaluation, and data-driven decision-making at district and departmental levels. TB Care enables end-to-end digital tracking of patients—from in-treatment to cured status—through a fully automated, secure, and scalable process. By integrating technology with public health workflows, the app enhances efficiency, improves patient outcomes, and strengthens TB elimination efforts. TB Care is built with a strong focus on data security, reliability, and ease of use, ensuring sensitive health information is protected while empowering healthcare systems to deliver timely, coordinated, and effective TB care.
