And for the accurate decision-making, target setting and prediction of movement, the estimating of the short- and long-term effects of the strategies of disease related service are required. But the limited informations, including all of knowledge of leprosy, make it difficult to estimate them properly. To achieve the more effective leprosy related service, we have to make the effort to crate the more accurate system.
