Back Pack Health Worker Teams (BPHWT):
MTC partners with the BPHWT organization. There are about 75 BPHWTs. They provide health services to remote villages and IDPs in Karen, Mon, and Karenni areas. Each team consists of 3 to 4 health workers. The estimated target population for the BPHW Teams is 170,000 people inside Burma who would otherwise not have access to health care services.

Back Pack Teams are engaged in curative care, health campaigns, and water and sanitation projects, vitamin A and de-worming programs, school health promotion, and TBA (Traditional Birth Attendant) training and support. Health information systems, data collection and analysis, and ongoing medical training are important components of the Back Pack program as well.

MTC collaborates with the BPWHTs to provide health seminars, workshops, and training seminars every 6 months; BPHWTs also use MTC mobile clinics as referral centers for patients who live in close enough proximity.
