Résumé

National Strategic Plan for tuberculosis care and control, Nepal ( 2016-2021) envisions ambitious target of decreasing TB incidence by 20% by 2021.In achieving so it has to identify and manage 20,000 more cases by 2021 compared to 2015. Contribution of private sector which roughly accounts to 25% of all the burden of tuberculosis cases in Nepal will be vitally important along with effective public private partnership. In this review we discuss why blaming the private sector alone is not sufficient and much effective PPP collaboration needs to be done stepping on the positive results shown by the earlier collaboration.
