  • Descrição: A decline in the HIV workforce has led to a crisis of insufficient expertise to manage people with HIV (PWH), roughly a quarter of whom are coinfected with hepatitis C. Task shifting to nonspecialist providers can contribute to solving the HIV workforce shortage problem, but nonspecialist providers require sufficient training and support to acquire and retain the necessary knowledge and skills. Digital tools including mobile applications (apps) and telementoring which utilizes telecommunication technology for education and skill acquisition can be used for professional development. Described is the development and dissemination of a mobile app specifically for providers managing HIV/HCV coinfection in the United States. The app, through provider professional development, facilitates access to curative HCV treatment in PWH, encourages integration of HCV care into primary care and contributes to national goals to eliminate HIV and viral hepatitis by 2030.
