Description

Initially, HCV Informatics (C-IT) will be used to filter the EMR data of the one million people who receive care at Mount Sinai and identify candidates for HCV testing (baby boomers, patients with HIV infection) and candidates for HCV treatment (patients with positive test results for HCV RNA and no record of treatment).once treatment candidates have been identified through this proactive approach, their providers will be directly notified. HCV champions and patient navigators will be used to further lower barriers to the delivery of HCV care. They will be co-located at non-hepatology care sites and will help deliver open-label HCV treatment as part of standard medical care to 500 HIV/HCV co-infected patients and 200 patients with type 2 diabetes.
