Hepatitis C: State of Medicaid Access is a collaboration between the Center for Health Law and Policy Innovation of Harvard
Law School (CHLPI) and the National Viral Hepatitis Roundtable (NVHR). The project evaluates hepatitis C (HCV)
treatment restriction policies across state Medicaid programs, including all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto
Rico (referred to in this report as “states”). The goal of this project is to encourage states and empower advocates to work
toward improved access to curative HCV treatment across all Medicaid programs, in order to ensure that every Medicaid
enrollee who can benefit from this treatment is able to access it.
