ABSTRACT
For successful implementation of DOTS in India, many factors have played important part and one of which is the use of WHO-contracted local consultants. WHO had recruited consultants known as RNTCP Medical Consultants (RMCs) and assigned them to States and districts to provide technical assistance to the State and District TB Officers. In the districts the RMCs assist in preparation of action plans and interact with district and State authorities. The RMC network is funded by WHO and the Canadian International Development Agency. The assignment of RMCs has resulted in much more rapid implementation of the DOTS strategy with sustainable improvement in the quality of the programme in implementing districts.
