E N D
Background for Material Change • Bhutan is Gearing Towards Ending TB by 2035 • National Guidelines for Management of TB/DR -TB guideline revised • Moving towards treating latent TB infection • JMM mission recommendations (2016)
Moving towards Active Case finding from Passive case finding • Enhancing Infection Control Measures • Targeted and focused intervention-More cases are concentrated in 8 districts-including districts bordering neighboring countries
High prevalence of MDR-TB-10% of all new TB cases, and 37% among retreatment cases. • Expanded prevention and care to high-risk populations. • Expand diagnosis and care for the treatment of RR-/MDR-TB as recommended by the WHO. • WHO 2013 recording and reporting tools updated
Estimate of TB Burden, 2015 MDGs achieved in 2015
TB Case notification by Dzongkhags (2016) 993 cases in 8 districts accounting to 87% of the notified cases (Wangdi, S/jong, Sarpang, Chukha, Thimphu, Samtse, Mongar and Paro)
National Strategic Plan II (2017-2023) Gearing towards TB Elimination by 2030
Goal • To reduce TB and DR-TB burden until it no longer poses a public health problem in Bhutan
Objectives • To increase case notification rate of at least 90% among estimated TB and MDR-TB • To maintain treatment success rate of at least 90% among Drug susceptible TB and 75% among MDR-TB • To Improve TB/HIV co-infection case detection and ensure 100% registration • To strengthen programmatic management of TB at all levels.
Grant Recipients • Principal Recipient • Ministry of Health • Implementing Partners • University of Medical Sciences of Bhutan
Targets The milestones for End TB strategy for 2030, the target year for the SDGs: • To reach 90% of people who need treatment and treat them successfully by 2030 • To reduce TB deaths by 90% by 2030 • To reduce TB incidence by 80% by 2030 (less than 20 cases per 100,000 population)
Total Funding Need and Funding Request • Total NSP is USD 9.68 Million (2017-2023) • Total NSP Need for Funding cycle is USD 4.26 Million (2018-2021) • Anticipated Domestic Resources- 2.54 Million • Anticipated other resources-USD 30,000
Total Allocation for Tuberculosis 2019-2021 • USD 1,074,146.00 (1.074Million)
Sustainability • Commitment from RGOB • First Line TB Drugs procured through RGOB support • Infrastructure and HR • Bhutan Health Trust Fund mechanism
