Screening and Linking to Care Project 2020
While screening for hepatitis C among people who use drugs (PWUD) is relatively robust in BC, treatment uptake is low. The Screening and Linking to Care project aimed to engage PWUD who had never had hepatitis C virus
screening, or who have been screened but were not engaged in ongoing care and treatment, to screen, confirm and then engage with local hep C treatment providers.
Three half-day events provided free screening and linking to care in 3 different Interior Health communities in February and March 2020, engaging with local health care providers, HCV treatment providers and support services before, during and after events.
This summary report includes the barriers and solutions identified during the project.
This project was completed in partnership with BC Centre for Disease Control (BCCDC), Interior Health and community partners ANKORS and ASK Wellness, with support from Gilead and AbbVie.
