DHS Releases Viral Hepatitis Elimination Plan, Launches Dashboard to Track Progress

" Plan outlines efforts to improve testing, vaccination, and treatment of hepatitis A, B, and C to eliminate viral hepatitis by 2030"

This Hepatitis Awareness Month, the Wisconsin Department of Health Services (DHS) is announcing a plan to eliminate viral hepatitis and a public dashboard to track progress of the plan's goals.

The plan aims to eliminate viral hepatitis by 2030 and was based off the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) Viral Hepatitis National Strategic Plan goals. The plan was created in collaboration with key partners including community-based organizations, local and Tribal health departments, and health care providers. It will guide statewide efforts to improve testing, vaccination, and treatment of hepatitis A, B, and C to reduce death and illness associated with viral hepatitis infection. The plan outlines how DHS will collaborate with partners across Wisconsin and develop new partnerships to focus efforts on populations that are disproportionately affected by viral hepatitis.

In addition, a public dashboard is now available to track statewide progress towards the elimination plan's goals. It includes data on hepatitis A, B, and C. The dashboard will be updated annually and will analyze data from several data sources, including public health disease data, the Wisconsin Immunization Registry (WIR), and Wisconsin Vital Records.
