Coordinating Care for Patients Coinfected with HCV and HIV




CME show

Summary: This multidisciplinary CME activity focuses on the co-management of patients coinfected with Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) and the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV). In the United States, 15-30% of infected HCV patients are coinfected with HIV. These patients are complex to manage as they are not always easily identified; the urgency to treat them is even greater than those patients with a single infection. This panel discussion will address professional practice gaps for Primary Care Physicians, Gastroenterologists, Hepatologists and Infectious Disease Specialists, all of whom may have diagnostic and/or management responsibilities for HCV and HIV coinfected patients along the disease continuum and patient journey. 0.5 CME Credits
