When you can’t afford your prescription medications, everything else becomes harder.

Liver Coalition board member Laura Parler presented at the California Academy of Family Physicians annual conference in San Diego, where she shared our Patient Resource Guide: https://livercoalition.org/patient-resource-guide/

WHY THIS GUIDE MATTERS
Prescription affordability remains one of the leading barriers to medication adherence in the United States. For people living with chronic illnesses, the cost of medications often forces impossible choices between treatment and basic needs like housing, food, transportation, and utilities.

This guide equips healthcare professionals and patients with practical resources that can help reduce medication costs and improve access to essential treatment.

If you missed our Liver Q & A Webinar with Kathleen B. Schwarz, MD from Rady Children's Health - San Diego: The Alphabet Soup of Viral Hepatitis in Kids, the full recording is now available on our YouTube channel. She also shared an important update on San Diego County’s new pediatric HCV surveillance efforts, an activity connected to the Eliminate Hepatitis C San Diego County Initiative, designed to address the gap between modeling estimates of roughly 1,300 expected pediatric cases and the much lower number currently reported. Plans include building electronic health record reminders to ensure high‑risk children are screened.

The Liver Coalition of San Diego is excited to team up with the San Diego County Medical Society on the latest issue of San Diego Physician Magazine, featuring the article “The Revolution in Blood‑Based Early Detection is Coming.”

This piece explores how advances in blood‑based testing could transform early detection for cancer and other chronic conditions—from multi‑cancer early detection (MCED) to emerging single‑disease blood tests.

A huge thank‑you to our Medical Advisory Council chair, Julio Gutierrez, MD, and member Robert G Gish, MD, for co‑authoring this forward‑looking article on the future of early detection.
