    Abstract Purpose: The new era of direct-acting antivirals (DAAs) against the hepatitis C virus (HCV) has led many primary care clinicians to begin treating HCV. Nevertheless, many patients are referred to specialists due to comorbidities, care complexities, and knowledge gaps of the primary care provider. We compared clinical outcomes for patients treated within a Family Medicine Residency Program (FMRP) affiliated patient-centered medical home (PCMH) with those referred to a specialist.
    Methods: Following didactic education and development of practice resources we conducted a single-center quasi-experimental study of adults with HCV referred for treatment either internally or externally to a specialist between January 2019 and December 2020. The primary outcome was the number of patients with a sustained virologic response at 12 weeks after treatment (SVR12), utilizing an intention-to-treat analysis.
    Results: During the study period 107 patients were assessed by the PCMH, of whom 24 were deemed not a good candidate for treatment. Of the 83 patients referred for treatment, 36 patients were referred externally and 47 were treated internally. While the rate of SVR12 was 100% for both groups when analyzed per protocol (ie, only patients who completed treatment and attended all follow-ups), the rate of SVR12 was 31% for patients referred externally and 62% for patients treated internally when analyzed by intention to treat (relative risk [RR] 2.02, 95% CI 1.18-3.47,
    Conclusions: Following education and creation of practice resources, achievement of SVR12 among patients with HCV treated by an internal interdisciplinary family medicine team was superior to those who were externally referred. This was primarily attributable to differences in follow-up rates.

    Abstract Approximately 8,200 new cases of Hodgkin lymphoma are diagnosed annually in the United States. Common presenting features include painless lymphadenopathy (usually above the diaphragm), cough, fever, night sweats, and weight loss. To decrease late complications, treatment has gradually evolved toward shorter-duration chemotherapy with use of lower-dose, shorter-duration radiation therapy. ABVD (a chemotherapy regimen consisting of doxorubicin, bleomycin, vinblastine, and dacarbazine) is now more commonly used than MOPP (a regimen consisting of mechlorethamine, vincristine, procarbazine, and prednisone) in patients with Hodgkin lymphoma. Many significant complications of therapy (e.g., cardiovascular conditions, infertility, premature menopause, secondary neoplasms) directly reflect the choice of primary treatment and may be reduced by more current treatment strategies. Recurrences of Hodgkin lymphoma are most common in the first few years after diagnosis and treatment. Prognosis is related to the stage of lymphoma, disease bulk, and age of the patient. Currently, more than 80 percent of patients with newly diagnosed Hodgkin lymphoma are expected to be long-term survivors.
