Abstract:

Tuberculosis control service system is the main body of implementing tuberculosis control program. Since the 21st century, China has been trying to establish a “Trinity” tuberculosis prevention and control mode in which designated tuberculosis hospitals are mainly responsible for tuberculosis diagnosis and treatment, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention for planning, managing and evaluating the prevention and control work, and primary medical and health institutions for following-up and managing tuberculosis patients during their treatment process. Currently, the construction of the “Trinity” tuberculosis prevention and control service system in China has achieved good results. However, there are still some problems remained, such as insufficient government leadership, insufficient system capacity building, lack of funding, and poor interdepartmental coordination. This study aims to analyse current operation situation of the tuberculosis prevention and control service system in China, identify problems and put forward suggestions, so as to further optimize the tuberculosis prevention and control service system and improve the quality of tuberculosis prevention and control work in China.
