| Core Tip |
Historically, hepatitis C virus (HCV) treat-ment rates have been low in patients with human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) co-infection, especially for African-American patients. Identifying the reasons for treatment non-initiation may help improve treatment rates among racially and ethnic minorities. In our study of patients with HIV/HCV coinfection, non-modifiable medical reasons, potentially modifiable medical reasons, and non-medical reasons for non-treatment were common among all patients, regardless of their race/ethnicity. There is a need to recognize and overcome potential treatment barriers in order to improve HCV treatment uptake in this patient population.
