JAMA Network

About The Study: The findings of this study suggest that a community-based point-of-care hepatitis C virus (HCV) RNA testing program was feasible and was associated with a high percentage of same-day treatment for American Indian and Alaska Native participants. This study supports expanding point-of-care HCV RNA testing and integrated treatment to advance HCV elimination.
