Summary

This trialwill investigate if providing HCV treatment through a P&P office using telemedicine can help people get treatment without needing to travel to a specialist's office.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for individuals on probation or parole with a history of hepatitis C who will be supervised at the office for at least 5 months. They must have health insurance, be able to consent to the study, and have a life expectancy over one year. It's not open to those without active hepatitis C infection, pregnant or breastfeeding women, people co-infected with HIV/HBV, or those with severe liver cirrhosis.
What is being tested?
The study tests if telehealth services in a probation and parole office can effectively link patients to hepatitis C care and treatment compared to previous methods. Participants receive consultations from HCV experts via telemedicine during regular appointments without extra travel.
What are the potential side effects?
Since this trial focuses on service delivery rather than medication side effects are not detailed here. However, typical HCV treatments may include headaches, fatigue, nausea which would be monitored by healthcare providers.
