Abstract:
The publication of the Screening Guidelines for Hepatitis C Virus Infection represents a significant milestone in the path towards eliminating this infectious condition. As early as 2015, the National Health System Plan for Tackling Hepatits C (Plan estratégico para el abordaje de la hepatitis C - PEAHC) pointed out the need to define a screening policy. The Health Ministry has managed to bring together all the actors involved, and to create a technical document that represents a benchmark in the definition of the actions needed to identify and bring treatment closer to a significant number of patients diagnosed with hepatitis C who remain untreated.
