Centre for JPETS Quality Assessment
Overview and Mission
Centre for Japan Pre-Entry Tuberculosis Screening (JPETS) Quality Assessment was established in April 2020, to assist the Ministry of Health, Welfare and Labour, Japan in operating Japan’s pre-entry tuberculosis(TB) screening programme. Our Mission is to provide technical support and recommendations based on long-established expertise in TB control both within and outside Japan, and to contribute to delivering high-quality pre-entry TB screening for individuals travelling to Japan.
Our main roles are threefold:
- To monitor and evaluate panel clinics and assist them in providing high-quality pre-entry TB screening services for their clients.
- To respond to inquiries from panel clinics related to JPETS.
- To analyze screening data, publish reports, and share the outcomes and implications with relevant parties.
