She works as a sweeper in a private school hostel. Pushpalatha visited Thirupathi, the Rural Healthcare Provider (RHCP) for help as she was suffering from a persistent fever and cough for over a month. Thirupathi screened her and suggested a TB test. Fearing stigma she avoided going to the facility and bought herself some medication from the local pharmacy, which gave her symptomatic relief. The FC tracked her through the mobile app, reached out to Pushpalatha, and after counseling, convinced her to get tested. Pushpalatha was diagnosed clinically (chest X-ray) and confirmed biologically (CBNAAT) the next day. Giving due consideration to her weakened condition, the FC and provider did home visits and found she was skipping doses owing to weakness and lack of nutrition.
