National Tuberculosis Indicators Project (NTIP)

Key points

NTIP is a web-based tool that utilizes nationally set indicators to measure program progress toward achieving the National TB Objectives. These measures are developed to assess program progress towards the National TB Program Objectives agreed upon by CDC and the federally funded TB programs.

Background

NTIP provides TB program officials with reports generated from data submitted to CDC. The reports provide a snapshot of the program's overall performance and detailed indicator reports. The reports include graphs comparing their current performance to previous years and national averages. The reports also include summary tables of the variables used in each indicator and cohort calculation. NTIP provides individual case data for further investigation and evaluation.

Using NTIP, CDC consultants and TB program officials can prioritize program activities.
