JAMA "National Prescribing Trends of Direct-Acting Antivirals for Hepatitis C." The graphic shows trends from 2013-2025 by payer, prescriber specialty, patient age, and geographic distribution. Commercial payer trends peaked in 2016, then declined. Published online March 25, 2026.
Direct-acting antiviral prescriptions for #HepatitisC peaked in 2015, declined steadily, and shifted toward younger patients, Medicaid coverage, and rural counties, while specialist prescribing decreased.

🆕A new modelling study in #HongKong found one-off screening in #Prison is cost-effective to reduce #HCV related #cirrhosis, #LiverCancer & #mortality. More frequent screenings imply higher cost, but would yield better health gain.

🧵1️⃣ Der Wirkstoff Bemnifosbuvir kann auch das #HepatitisE- Virus an der Vermehrung hindern. Das zeigen Zellkultur-Versuche eines deutsch-chinesischen Forschungsteam. Das Nukleotid/Nukleosid-Analogon befindet sich derzeit in einer klinischen Studie zur Behandlung von #HepatitisC. /2
Decision tree model illustrating HCV testing algorithm choices: 1-Step POC HCV RNA-first, 2-Step POC, SOC-2-step (screening and laboratory), and No screening, branching to outcomes like "True positive", "Linked to care", "Clone 4: cure", and Dynamic transmission model.
For people at high risk of #HepatitisC, a point-of-care RNA-first testing approach identified more cases, increased treatment initiation, reduced transmission, and lowered lifetime costs compared with standard laboratory testing across all care settings.

Pestiviruses primarily infect livestock (cattle, pigs, and sheep) and are generally not considered a major human health threat. While they are closely related to the human #HepatitisC virus, they are traditionally viewed as strictly veterinary pathogens.
🧵Eliminating #HepatitisC ( #HepC ) takes all of us & a true investment in #Prevention, testing, & cures. In New York, huge progress has been made because of the advocacy of NHRC & several other organizations, though backsliding from inadequate funding threatens milestones in...

The graph plots changes in tests per month per text@1000 enrollees. The period ranges from Q3 2017 to Q3 2022. A blue dotted line at Q3 2019 marks the start of a subscription-based policy. Test numbers increase after the policy start.
After Washington's #HepatitisC elimination initiative, screening increased, prevalence trended downward, treatment rates improved, and per-patient health care costs decreased despite higher case identification.
