Join us in urging officials across the country to support policies that help Americans living with hepatitis C get cured.
Mississippi
Liver damage restrictions
Fee-For-Service (FFS) and managed care organizations (MCOs) do not specify liver damage requirements.
Sobriety restrictions
FFS and MCOs require 6 months abstinence documented by a urine screen for beneficiaries with a history of use.
Prescriber restrictions
FFS and MCOs require a prescription by or in consultation with a specialist.
Recommendations
- Remove sobriety and prescriber restrictions.
- Maintain hepatitis C coverage parity across the FFS and MCO program and transparency regarding coverage criteria.
