Open to all practice staff in Australia.

Many people may not know their hepatitis C status or be aware that new treatments with minimal side effects and high cure rates are readily available in primary care settings.
This online webinar consists of 2 parts:
Part One: Launch of Beyond the C
Part Two: Hepatitis C case finding training
This workshop will assist primary healthcare nurses and practice managers in undertaking case finding for hepatitis C in their practice by;
- identifying target populations
- conducting searches to identify those patients
- implementing systems to recall those patients back for testing or care
- build stronger patient-practice relationships to enhance health outcomes for people living with hepatitis C
- provide an introduction to the Beyond the C program to assist your practice with tailored support and incentives to enhance your case-finding activities.
Learning Outcomes:
- outline the importance of hepatitis C case finding and describe the role of primary care in case finding
- identify target populations for hepatitis C case finding in your practice
- describe a process to recall patients into your practice for hepatitis C testing and care
- identify available resources to support your practice in hepatitis C case finding.
