Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in Ethiopia. Despite massive investments in health management information system, poor data coverage of these systems has led to gross under-use as an evidence base for decision-making at the national level. It is also true across all program areas; community program and health care delivery personnel often face competing demands that make the collection and recording of daily service delivery data a challenge.
