            WHEREAS, Tuberculosis, a treatable and infectious disease, remains a public health concern and was even ranked 6th  among the leading causes of mortality with a rate of 26.3 deaths for every 100,000 population in the year 2010;

            WHEREAS, last year,  the Region’s engagement in terms of TB Directly Observed Treatment Short-course (DOTS) Certification, which consists  of  diagnosing cases,  treating patients for 6-8 months with drugs, and  promoting adherence to the relatively difficult treatment regimen  is only 29%;

            WHEREAS,  to scale up the TB DOTS Certification and Accreditation and assure effectiveness of the program to reach the communities, a Memorandum of Agreement, providing DOTS facilities, such as the rural health units in the barangays, certified by the  Department of Health (DOH) through the Regional Offices, as equipped to provide quality TB services is indeed order. The same shall also generate financial support through the PhilHealth TB-DOTS outpatient benefit package;

            WHEREAS, it is deemed that the Memorandum of Agreement will pave way for the swift implementation of the program;

NOW, THEREFORE, on motion of City Councilor Eduardo G Guerrero, with the unanimous accord of the Members of the Sangguniang Panlungsod present,
