    This document outlines barriers to tuberculosis (TB) control and an ideal framework called "Cough to Cure". It identifies key barriers at different stages of a TB patient's health seeking behavior and treatment. These include poor knowledge of TB symptoms, care, and cure; stigma; misperceptions about costs and services; and issues with time, distance, and quality of care. The community can help address TB by spreading awareness about the disease and encouraging those with symptoms to get tested at health centers.
