Abstract
For most people with chronic hepatitis C, treatment with direct-acting antiviral (DAA) therapy is simple and easily incorporated into primary care. GPs can help in the push to eliminate hepatitis C by 2030 through strategies to eliminate hepatitis C from their own practices. This includes finding their patients with hepatitis C, assessing, treating and following up after DAA therapy.
