Summary

Our study will test the effectiveness of a simplified approach to delivering Hepatitis C Virus (HCV) care in a street-based mobile medical clinic among people who inject drugs in increasing treatment initiation, retention, and cure. Rates of HCV treatment initiation, retention, and cure will be compared between patients offered the simplified approach to delivering HCV care in a mobile medical clinic versus those who are linked to a community clinic delivering a current practice of usual care. The investigators hypothesize that the simplified approach to delivering HCV care in a street-based mobile medical clinic will result in higher treatment initiation, retention, and cure than the current practice of usual care in community clinics.
