TY - GEN N2 - An estimated 2.7-4 million people in the United States have been infected with the hepatitis C virus (HCV), of those, about 3.2 million have current HCV infections. However, 45-85% of people infected do not know they have HCV. Chronic HCV infection can lead to cirrhosis, liver failure, and hepatocellular carcinoma. The purpose of this project was to increase HCV screening rates in a primary care clinic among the birth cohort.
