Although HCV prevalence varied, the care cascades achieved consistent results across townships/cities. We have further successfully implemented the model in county-wide hospital-based diabetes clinics, eventually treating 89.6% of the total PwD. A collaborative effort between diabetes care and HCV elimination enhanced the testing and treatment in PwD through an innovative shared care model.
