Abstract：After the founding of PRC, the government actively prevented and treated pulmonary tuberculosis. As an important part of the work, the evolution process of pulmonary tuberculosis control in coal mining industry is quite typical. In the early 1950s, the government established the medical system of labor insurance, and put the focus on tuberculosis control in the industrial and mining enterprises, which promoted the construction of the tuberculosis control institution in the coal industry. In the early days of the Great Leap Forward, many coal mining enterprises founded tuberculosis dispensary or sanatorium, but the subsequent economic recession led to a sharp contraction of such institutions. Social upheaval and economic destruction at the beginning of the Cultural Revolution brought the work to a stop. After the reform and opening up, order was restored, and the government once again strengthened tuberculosis control. By improving the prevention system and actively treating patients, the coal industry was able to controll tuberculosis. This history shows that only by strengthening the leadership of the Party and providing the necessary funds can we promote the development of medical and health undertakings.
