Tuberculosis Central Office


The TB Central Office (TBCO) conducts surveillance for cases and maintains a registry with clinical and follow-up data on all TB patients reported in Chicago. In addition, contact investigations are monitored and special investigations are coordinated through TBCO. At the time of case (or suspect) report, TBCO assigns patients to a public health nursing station and suggests the nearest TB clinic based on the patient's address. Also at TSCO are copies of current ATS and CDC guidelines for treating and preventing TB.
