Adapting a mobile TB screening unit to provide integrated screening services and linkage to primary care.

Objective: We adapted a mobile TB screening unit to create an integrated screening program for noncommunicable diseases and TB, using community health worker (CHW) navigators to support linkage to care. We piloted the model in underserved communities of Lima, Peru, evaluating its feasibility, acceptability, and ability to continue supporting TB case detection.

Design: The program provided screening for TB, hypertension, diabetes, and depression and was rebranded to avoid TB-associated stigma.
