During this webinar, the speakers will describe two unique populations and the practical aspects and health systems models needed to treat hepatitis C: pregnant and incarcerated people. The emerging data regarding safety and efficacy of treating hepatitis C during pregnancy will be discussed, as well as the effects on maternal to child transmission. There will also be discussion on the individual opportunities and challenges of treating hepatitis C in incarcerated people, as well as the downstream community effects of treating hepatitis C in this setting. Lastly, there will be an overview of the Louisiana Corrections Model, which is a successful example of using policy to overcome gaps in the corrections system.
This activity originally aired on March 26, 2024 and hosted by the Public Health Care and Delivery SIG.
