Standards for Tuberculosis care (ISTC)" and "Patient's
Charter for Tuberculosis care" (These documents
have been endorsed by several leading agencies such as the
WHO, IUATLD, ATS, KNCV, Stop TB Partnership, and CDC. Developed
by the Tuberculosis Coalition for Technical Assistance (TBCTA)
with funding from the United States Agency for International
Development (USAID), the ISTC describe a widely accepted
level of care that all practitioners, public and private,
should seek to achieve in managing patients who have, or
are suspected of having, tuberculosis. The Standards are
intended to facilitate the effective engagement of all care
providers in delivering high-quality care for patients of
all ages. Developed by the World Care Council in tandem
with the ISTC, The Patient's Charter outlines the rights
and responsibilities of people with tuberculosis. It empowers
people with the disease and their communities through this
knowledge. Initiated and developed by patients from around
the world, The Charter makes the relationship with healthcare
providers a mutually beneficial one.):
