The National Institute on Drug Abuse (NIDA) awarded a $707,647 Project Grant (CFDA 93.279 - Drug Use and Addiction Research Programs) to Weill Medical College of Cornell University to conduct research on universal hepatitis C virus (HCV) screening during pregnancy. The project aims to: 1) determine if revised HCV testing guidelines led to increased testing rates among pregnant women compared to non-pregnant women; 2) assess if the guidelines increased postpartum HCV linkage to care, treatment, and other maternal care aspects; and 3) examine if the guidelines increased appropriate HCV testing and diagnoses for infants born to HCV-infected mothers in Medicaid. The research will leverage national Medicaid and commercial claims data to understand HCV testing and treatment implementation, and identify targets for public health and policy interventions to improve HCV elimination and health outcomes for people who use drugs. The project period runs from September 30, 2024 to July 31, 2029.
