Treating Hepatitis C in a Primary Care Setting CME Provider Virtual Training Program - Community Liver Alliance Please feel free to share this invitation with your colleagues.
The Community Liver Alliance expert Trainers for your program will be Alison Kost, RN and Matthew Barnes, CRNP. Both Alison and Matt have experience in treating patients with HCV, particularly within marginalized populations. Alison developed the first HCV Clinic at the Northside Christian Health Center FQHC in 2006 to support uninsured patients. Matthew currently works at Crossroads Treatment Centers, where he treats people across Pennsylvania for substance use disorders and hepatitis C. He leads the hepatitis C treatment effort for Crossroads’ 36 offices in Pennsylvania, as well as training his counterparts in other states.
In exchange for our training, we require our sites to provide a Quarterly Treatment Report for the first year. This allows us to understand the outcomes of our program and to share the data with our stakeholders.
Our primary goal of the training is to make an impact on eliminating hepatitis C as a disease burden, particularly in response to the intersection of hepatitis c and the opioid epidemic.
We are looking forward to providing the training to you and your colleagues and commend you on being a part of the solution!”
