This webinar provides a national perspective of how the hepatitis C virus (HCV) and opioid use disorder epidemics are connected and what health centers can do to address them. We heard from Lauren Canary from the CDC about expansion of medication-assisted treatment (MAT) and what resources are available to providers.
As the Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection is emerging as a serious public health problem in tandem with the opioid epidemic, health centers have the opportunity to decrease its impact with standardized screening, linkage to care and treatment protocols. This case study highlights how five health centers nationally are addressing the increased rates of HCV infection and its intersection with the opioid epidemic.
