Study on Institutional Assessment for Revised National TB Control Program

Agency : Central TB Division, MoHFW, GoI.

The Government of India had requested the World Bank to support implementing Phase- II of RNTCP project. The overall aim of the project was to assist the Government of India in achieving its overall goal of improving health outcomes, in line with the millennium development goals in health.

As a prerequisite to understand the institutional and implementation gaps, the study was undertaken to prepare the PIP for Phase-II.

While the broad objectives were to assess the institutional capacity of central and state government and; state and district TB societies and formulate a strategy in consolidation of TB control programme, the specific objectives were:

  • To conduct the institutional assessment at central and state levels
  • To study the organisational mechanism (structure) and its linkages with the health department and medical colleges
  • To study the participation and linkages of other sectors, non-governmental and private sectors with RNTCP
  • To develop a strategic framework for the RNTCP II PIP
