Education

"Rural/community based HCPs should be considered an important target audience for educational initiatives."

"Three primary needs: 1) primary care HCV screening 2) rural specialist education 3) linkage to care"

"Involve a greater emphasis on one-on-one or small group, non-lecture based training."
