Summary
England is well on the way towards its goal of eliminating hepatitis C; with over 84,000 patients treated and cleared, there are now more people that have been treated than are left to treat. However, there are still up to an estimated 70,000 people left to find—and what has worked to find patients so far, might not work so well for those that remain to be found. This is where former patients, also known as peers, come in.
In this blog, Hepatitis C Trust CEO Rachel Halford and Mark Gillyon-Powell, Head of programme for hepatitis C at NHS England, look at how patient engagement has been essential to efforts to eliminate Hepatitis C in England.
