Provider attitudes toward ambulatory treatment and incentive payments: facilitating the transition to patient-centered care in Kyrgyzstan

This poster was developed to showcase an assessment of provider attitudes toward ambulatory tuberculosis (TB) treatment in the Kyrgyz Republic. Through the Cure TB project, JSI conducted multiple in-depth interviews in facilities across the country. The results revealed that PHC providers' attitudes towards ambulatory TB treatment were more positive than TB facility providers' attitudes. Furthermore, there is evidence that incentive payments for PHC providers facilitates an increase in ambulatory TB care. The poster was presented at The Union World Conference on World Lung Health 2022, and it can be useful for organizations working to scale ambulatory TB treatment.
