Clinical trials

This study will evaluate a single-visit approach to hepatitis C treatment in patients seen in the emergency department. Participants with hepatitis C will receive rapid testing and, if eligible, hepatitis C medication before leaving the emergency department. The study will also use a smart pillbox, an AI-powered virtual agent, and community health worker support to help participants take their medication as prescribed. Participants will have follow-up visits and testing to assess medication adherence and whether the hepatitis C infection is cured.
