Abstract

Background of the study: Tuberculosis is a contagious illness caused by bacteria (Mycobacterium tuberculosis) that mostly affects the lungs. When an infected individual coughs or sneezes, it can spread via the air. Tuberculosis imposes an economic cost not only on the afflicted person, but also on his whole family and entire nations due to lost output during the ill period. Every year, ten million individuals have tuberculosis, resulting in a significant loss in the nation's per capita revenue. Objectives of the study: A greater number of articles by diverse writers demonstrate their interest in researching one economic stage of TB. Few authors have conducted reviews of the literature on the economic morbidity of TB in recent decades; however, given the economic elements in recent times, a more complete assessment is performed here to identify the Research Gap. Findings: The researcher reviewed the literature on economic morbidity of tuberculosis in this paper in order to assist other researchers, academicians, policymakers, and practitioners in taking a closer look at the recent trends and growths, statistical methods, financial gaps, and achievement rates in this studies. Conclusion: The author has examined various papers and proposed a comprehensive summary of various studies conducted in India and abroad, identifying certain recommendations and research gaps, as well as methods that would provide hints for future research in the area of Health Economics under the headings of tuberculosis.
