Impact of integration of NLEP into PHC system in Madurai district, Tamil Nadu, and status of integration of leprosy patients into the community
Abstract
Based on the encouraging results of the integration in Tamil Nadu, the Government of India introduced integration in the entire country. In this study on integration, Madurai district was taken as the study area. The impact of integration on essential indicators of leprosy elimination was analyzed and the results are discussed so that they will be useful to other states that are still considering integration.
