Total costs and breakdown per patient for drug sensitive tuberculosis, multi-drug resistant tuberculosis and extensively drug-resistant tuberculosis. Costs are expressed in $US.

*In the current model 100% of XDR-TB patients are hospitalized whereas in the proposed decentralized model 50% are treated as outpatients and the remaining 50% are hospitalized.
†For example, the total costs of illness arising from DS TB per patient were calculated as (0.6*191.66)+(0.2*252.54)+(0.2*455.50) = $256.61.
DS-TB - Drug sensitive tuberculosis, MDR-TB – Multi-drug resistant tuberculosis, XDR-TB – Extensively Drug-resistant tuberculosis, PCC- primary care clinic, ADR- Adverse Drug reaction.
