Hepatitis C ECHO
The HCV ECHO helps connect primary care providers to teams of medical experts in the state to improve access to high-quality treatment for Hepatitis C. Physicians, PAs, nurses, pharmacists, social workers, peer recovery specialists, and case managers share best practices on how to collaboratively manage, diagnosis, test and treat patients with the complex disease.
There is no cost associated with participation, and free continuing education credits (CME) are available to those who participate.
Hepatitis C sessions are on the 1st and 3rd Tuesdays from noon to 1:00 pm via Zoom.
HCV Case Management Request
Do you have a case you would like to submit? The submission of cases for presentation and discussion or consultation is a key component in the Project ECHO model and critically important for knowledge building and sharing. We welcome cases that involve common clinical scenarios related to diagnosis and care as well as difficult, complex, or challenging presentations and patient management scenarios. There is something to learn from every case!
Please fill out the HCV case submission form. Every section does not need to be complete. Any questions you have contact stacie.pannell@umontana.edu.
