Southeast Viral Hepatitis Interactive Case Conference (SVICC)

The Southeast Viral Hepatitis Interactive Case Conference (SVICC), formerly the South Carolina Hepatitis C Telehealth Initiative, provides education and training and is designed to build the capacity of providers focused on viral hepatitis, specifically Hepatitis C Virus (HCV). This program will support new and experienced providers with evidence based, real time consultations on HCV screening, staging, treatment and post sustained virologic response (SVR) management.

The initiative covers a broad spectrum of topics related to Hepatitis C, from treatment naïve to treatment experienced patients with or without decompensated cirrhosis. Other cases for discussion can include patients with Hepatitis B, HIV/HCV/HBV co-infection as well as patients with substance use disorders.

The case conference format is a short didactic presentation, followed by a discussion of the case(s) submitted by the participants. Case recommendations are provided by a panel that includes ID physicians and ID clinical pharmacists.

Physicians, PAs, NPs, pharmacists, nurses, social workers, and other healthcare professionals are encouraged to attend. CME, ACPE and Nursing credits are provided and there is no charge for participation.
