Implementation Guide: Delivering Hepatitis C Treatment in an HIV Care Setting

This guide synthesizes findings from the federally funded Special Projects of National Significance (SPNS) Hepatitis C Treatment Expansion Initiative, which focused on HCV treatment among coinfected patients. SPNS grantees implemented HCV treatment into their HIV primary care settings and those lessons learned are captured here. The target audience for this guide includes health care provider sites and community partners with an interest in treating HCV among their HIV-positive coinfected patients.
