[Ways of enhancing the efficiency of tuberculosis-controlling measures and reducing their cost].
As of now, there are prerequisites for enhancing the efficiency of tuberculosis-controlling measures and for reducing their cost by utilizing material and personnel resources in priority areas. These include: to detect patients with tuberculosis by using current computer technologies, to apply digital X-ray plants, to recruit general practitioners for preventive measures against tuberculosis, to reduce the cost of treatment in patients with tuberculosis by decreasing hospital stay. Introduction of currently available procedures substantially lowers the cost of antituberculous aid and enhances its efficiency.
