This webinar is presented by the Alliance and the Hepatitis C Elimination Roadmap Ontario
Hepatitis C is the first curable chronic viral infection, yet many people remain undiagnosed or disconnected from care. This webinar, delivered by the Hepatitis C Elimination Roadmap
Ontario, explores how integrating hepatitis C testing and treatment into everyday primary care can strengthen patient attachment, reduce health inequities, and drive hepatitis C elimination at the micro level. During this session, participants will learn how:
- Hepatitis C care advances health equity in priority populations.
- Screening can connect patients to providers and strengthen primary care relationships.
- Liver health is an important part of primary care and the health impacts associated with hepatitis C cure.
- Advances in hepatitis C testing, as well as clinical tools and practice resources can support providers from testing to cure.
