The study made use of descriptive-correlational research design with follow-up interview to determine the respondents’ profile and the incidence of tuberculosis cases as well as the compliance of tuberculosis patients to DOTS. The researcher also utilized a researcher-made questionnaire measuring the level of compliance of the 47 tuberculosis patients in year 2012 to DOTS program of the Department of Health based on the evaluation of the Barangay Health Worker. Respondents were identified using purposive sampling design. Data were treated through simple percentage, incidence rate formula, and Pearson R test. There were four significant findings, viz.: (1) majority of the respondents are in the young adult – aged group ranging from 15-25 years old, male, belonged to community zone, Laray respondents were mostly from public sector and under the category 1 and with the 47 respondents, majority of the age group belongs to age group of 15-25 years old, male, belonged to a community zone Laray, patients were from public sectors and were categorized as category 1. Majority, fisherman was the present job of the respondents; (2) Incidence of tuberculosis is high in 2011 with 2.92 % registered while 2012 falls in the second rank with 50 cases registered in the DOTS program in Barangay San Roque, Talisay City. The incidence decreased in 2008 with 67%; (3) majority of the respondents was compliant to the treatment. The findings also revealed very compliant in terms of registering basing from TB symptomatic masterlist.

However, there was a significant relationship between profile of the respondents in terms of the present job and the extent of treatment compliance. A conclusion was drawn that the incidence of tuberculosis cases is still increasing and uncontrolled and the tuberculosis patients were complaint in the treatment regimen as implemented in the DOTS program of the Department of Health. The perceived barrier component of Rosenstock’s Health Belief Model had strengthened the study wherein there are different factors that would affect the manner of treatment compliance of the patients. Patients needs to be motivated in order to enhance improvement of treatment compliance. Recommendations suggested to facilitate implementation of the proposed action plan through dissemination of the research result to barangay officials pertaining to the encouragement of household members to undergo sputum examination and improvement of adhering administration of medication daily and also provision of health program as part of education of community and to conduct further studies as to a follow-up study for another 5 years or more as to widen the coverage of the study; Evaluation of the health programs given by the government to the communities and as well as evaluation of the effectiveness of the DOTS program of the Department of Health.
