See the process and outcome evaluations of the hepatitis C: patient re-engagement exercise.
Untreated hepatitis C infection causes cirrhosis and liver cancer. Very effective, well-tolerated oral therapies are now available on the NHS.
To enable people previously diagnosed with hepatitis C to be treated for their infection, NHS England and the PHE organised a national patient re-engagement exercise to help find and treat people with hepatitis C virus infection.
These documents provide further information and templates to support GPs and ODNs to deliver this important initiative.
