Abstract: Background: Since some challenges are not met in surveillance system. Resulting Case Detection Rate (CDR) less than 70% on suspected and identified sufferers of pulmonary tuberculosis disease. Therefore, effect to the high mortality and morbidity and the national target on case detection rate was not possible to be reached. Objective: This study aims to develop surveillance system model by empowering Barazanji participants in Pangkep region. Methodology: This study applied a sequence stages such as, first is surveillance system development to detect suspected pulmonary tuberculosis by conducting a survey to Barazanji participants. Reporting pulmonary tuberculosis prevention program analysis and nominal group techniques were used in order to solve several issues that emerged from the development pulmonary tuberculosis suspected disease intervention model. Secondly, do an assessment of the effectiveness the model for pulmonary tuberculosis suspected disease intervention. Results: This study shows an increase of successful tuberculosis program in an intervention group. All the knowledge variables after intervention experienced significant changes with p-value 0. 05. In the sense of pulmonary tuberculosis suspect proportion increase from 25.69-34.24%, respectively. Similarly, case detection rate of 51.36% originate from 34.24% in more than 3 months period compare with the control group which was that of 40.5% from 19.25%, whereas the case detection rate remain 20.26%. Conclusion: This model was matched with the local conditions since concept as bottom up and suitable with specific for this territory and the result may provide a valuable recommendation for tuberculosis control program in Indonesia.
