Viral Hepatitis, Early Identification and Linkage to Care for Persons with Chronic HBV and HCV Infections
CDC announces the availability of Fiscal Year (FY) 2013 funds to supplement and expand the project period for those awardees that were funded under CDC–RFA-PS12-1209PPHF to continue early identification of persons with chronic HBV and HCV infections and to enhance linkage to care, treatment, and preventive services for persons with these infections. The purpose of the program is to support a one (1) year expansion of the viral hepatitis testing initiative to increase early identification of persons with chronic hepatitis B and hepatitis C (or both), with a focus on medically underserved populations and populations that are disproportionately affected by these infections. In accordance with the HHS Viral Hepatitis Action Plan (available at http://www.hhs.gov/ash/initiatives/hepatitis), this FOA focuses on CDC’s commitment to ensure that new cases of viral hepatitis are prevented and that persons who are already infected are tested, informed of their infection, provided with counseling, and linked to care, treatment, and prevention services.
