Training for Physicians/Primary Care Providers

Training for Physicians/Primary Care Providers The West Virginia Hepatitis Academic Mentorship Program WVHAMP, supported by the West Virginia Rural Health Association, provides free education, tele-mentoring and continuing education credits designed for primary care providers to link with disease experts as required by West Virginia Medicaid. WVHAMP is designed to build a mentorship platform that is accessible to primary care providers caring for high-risk individuals throughout West Virginia, so individuals with chronic hepatitis C can be cared for and cured in their own communities.
