[Criteria for evaluating the effective work of a tuberculosis hospital, accounting, and software]

The hospital stage is by right basic in the treatment of patients with tuberculosis.

At present, there is a need for an exact calculation of the number of specialized tuberculosis beds, their conversion, as well as, to make the most use of all available therapeutic and diagnostic capacities of tuberculosis-controlling service of the subject of the Russian Federation, for the development of a regional route for a tuberculosis patient on the basis of the adopted health care standards.
