Description
A companion for Hepatitis C education and care, this app presents information relevant to a
typical patient care experience, from diagnosis with Hep C through treatment and even after
treatment is completed. HIV coinfection is also addressed. Presented as a 5-unit series of
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs) with Answers, a quiz follows the FAQ and bars illustrate
progress through each unit. The app is designed to help users better understand the clinical
condition of Hepatitis C, and enable better-informed conversations between app users and
health care providers. Part of a wider project entitled, “Connecticut Quantification, Evaluation,
and Response: HIV/HCV Elimination in Persons of Color” (ConnQuER HepC), this app is not
intended to replace professional care. This app captures no identifiable or clinical information.
