Evaluation of HCV Viremia Testing Approaches Among PWID in Georgia

This study will evaluate two novel approaches to improve access to Hepatitis C virus (HCV) confirmatory viremia testing. Both approaches are "Harm reduction site-based (HRS)" because HCV viremia testing will be initiated and test results will be provided at the HRSs. These approaches will be compared to the current standard of care (control) in which anti-HCV-positive individuals must travel to a HCV treatment centre for HCV viremia testing. The investigators hypothesize that improving access to viremia testing improves linkage to care and reduces loss to follow-up among those who screen anti-HCV-positive.
