AST would like to thank the Infectious Disease (IDCOP), Kidney Pancreas (KPCOP), and Liver and Intestinal (LICOP) Communities of Practice for each recommending "HCV" as a topic for the 2019-2020 T3 series. The concept was expanded into two HCV NAT+/- sessions, one covering "HCV NAT+/- in Abdominal Organ Transplantation" and another covering "HCV NAT+/- in Thoracic Organ Transplantation."
