Australia is lagging behind its treatment targets for people living with chronic hepatitis B.
ASHM has published a suite of resources to support clinicians at the time of diagnosis to refer patients on to community s100 prescribers.
The resources, launched as part of the ‘Hep B care. It’s primary care, too.’ campaign provide guidance for diagnosing clinicians, including a map to find local primary care prescribers of specialised hepatitis B medicine, as well as practical clinical communications tools to support the referral.
Understanding the available referral pathways is one of the best ways clinicians can support patients with hepatitis B.
