MAKASSAR - The Makassar Health Office (Dinkes) is focused on suppressing (elimination of) Tuberculosis (TBC) disease in local offices through the Sobat TB application.
Head of the Makassar Health Office, Nursaidah Sirajuddin, admitted that his party was making efforts to support the government's program on dealing with TB in offices.
"The Sobat TB application aims to capture or screen patients who are likely to be exposed to TB. Moreover, TB is an infectious disease, so if it is detected, we will immediately treat it," he said, quoted by Antara, Sunday, October 9.
He said his party had coordinated and synergized with all regional apparatus organizations (OPD) and sub-district heads to maximize early detection in their respective offices, encouraging state civil servants (ASN) to use the Friends TB application in order to monitor and anticipate if detected.
"We have been dealing with TB for a long time in the office. Moreover, this is a central policy, so it must be encouraged and successful," he said.
In strengthening coordination and synergy, the Makassar Health Office has also held a Monthly Interim Cohort Analysis (MICA) meeting to maximize the monitoring of cohorts of TB patients. It continues to encourage the birth of innovations to increase the discovery of TB cases in the area.
