BEHAVIORAL

Differentiated service delivery approach (DSD) in TB treatment and prevention.

Although DSD models have been widely adopted in HIV programs, DSD is a relatively new approach for TB programs because of an historical reliance on directly observed therapy (DOT) (6). DSD provides opportunities to improve health outcomes and reduce the burden of seeking care for people diagnosed with TB.
