    <description>The findings indicate that existing cost-reduction measures are insufficient to prevent catastrophic out-of-pocket spending for tuberculosis care. Financial and social protection interventions targeting identified at-risk groups, alongside community-level efficiency improvements in the care-seeking pathway, are needed to support universal health coverage goals and inform post-2015 tuberculosis strategies.</description>
