Special Conversations with CEI: The Impact of Hepatitis C Screening during Pregnancy: A Client’s Story

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a pathogen spread by contact with blood from a person with HCV infection. Prevalence among the US obstetric population rose nearly 10-fold over the past 20 years and approximately 6% of infants born to people with HCV become infected during pregnancy or delivery. The New York State Hepatitis C Elimination Plan outlines over 30 recommendations to eliminate HCV in the state by 2030, including implementation of universal screening for all adults. And in 2023, state legislators approved expanding the existing hepatitis C virus (HCV) testing law to include screening during each pregnancy; changes will go into effect on May 3rd, 2024.

This special edition of “Conversations with CEI” will provide important information about pregnancy, HCV and substance use from the perspective of a client with lived experience, with a focus on providing affirming services for all pregnant persons and their infants. Related Content:
