The WHO Multi-Country Tuberculosis (TB) Control Program is managed by the WHO Stop TB Department. The program focuses on four key interventions including: 1) strengthening TB diagnosis and case management systems in large urban hospital settings where a significant proportion of cases are misdiagnosed and not appropriately treated for TB; 2) diagnosing close contacts of TB patients (e.g. household members) in urban areas; 3) active screening of high risk groups; and 4) TB/HIV collaboration.
