A Treatment Supporter can be any person such as a Medical Officer, MPWs, community volunteers working with the program etc. Even a relative or family member of a person on TB treatment can be a Treatment Supporter.
As per NTEP guidelines, salaried NTEP/General Health System staff may also be assigned as treatment supporters for a person on treatment. However, they will not be eligible for any honorarium.
A person on TB treatment can only be linked to one treatment supporter at a time in Nikshay.
