TBSTAT

TBSTAT is a term used in healthcare and medical coding to classify the status of a tuberculosis (TB) case. It indicates whether a patient is currently being treated, has completed treatment, has a latent infection, or if the case is closed. This information helps health officials track disease progress, manage resources, and monitor public health efforts. In essence, TBSTAT provides a snapshot of a patient’s TB status, aiding in the organization and analysis of TB data for effective disease control and prevention.
