44455 (2024). Hon Dr Ayesha Verrall to the Associate Minister of Health: What progress, if any, has been made in the quarter (January to March 2024) toward the objective ‘Increase the integration and coordination of hepatitis C services across the sector’ under ‘Focus area 5: Integration and access to care’ in the National Hepatitis C Action Plan?

Hon Casey Costello: I am advised that to strengthen the delivery of consistent approaches around the country, the Northern Region hosted a national Hepatitis Elimination and Management Update webinar on the Goodfellow website. The seminar, attended by over 340 participants from primary and community-based services, promoted the National Hepatitis C Health Pathway and diagnosis and management of people with hepatitis C and B.
