We Treat Hep C
The MDHHS We Treat Hep C Initiative
Studies estimate that over 69,000 Michiganders are currently living with hepatitis C and that almost half of this population is unaware of their infection. Hepatitis C can be cured in only eight to 12 weeks with safe, effective, oral medications.
Through the We Treat Hep C Initiative, hepatitis C treatment medication MAVYRET® no longer requires prior authorization and hepatitis C treatment with MAVYRET® is available to all Medicaid ($1 copay) and Healthy Michigan Plan (no copay) beneficiaries at little to no cost. Other direct-acting antiviral medications ($3 copay) require prior authorization and are approved when MAVYRET® is not clinically appropriate.
IF YOU HAVE HEPATITIS C, TALK TO YOUR HEALTH CARE PROVIDER ABOUT GETTING CURED.
Hepatitis C video from State of Michigan Chief Medical Executive Dr. Natasha Bagdasarian
“There are safe and effective oral medications that can cure people with hepatitis C in only eight to 12 weeks … If you don't know if you have hepatitis C, ask your health care provider for a hepatitis C test. Please join us in our efforts to eliminate hepatitis C in all Michiganders. Get tested, get treated, get cured.”

Hepatitis C Elimination Plan
In Michigan, it is estimated that at least 200,000 people are living with hepatitis C. Many people may not know they have hepatitis C; it can spread silently because people may have no symptoms for many years. When symptoms do appear, they often are a sign of advanced liver disease. The hepatitis C virus can lead to liver failure, liver cancer, and death, all preventable through the availability of highly effective treatment. Thus, the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services, with the support and expertise from critical partners across the state, created Michigan's Hepatitis C Elimination Plan to lay the groundwork for our state becoming hepatitis C free.
