SCALE HBV™ was developed by DKBmed to familiarize general practitioners and clinicians with the latest CDC HBV screening and counseling guidelines and to help them link their patients to appropriate care promptly.
A key component of the app provides clinicians with an easy way to link patients with local HBV specialists based on patients’ zip code, city or state.
Studies have shown that many patients delay care following an HBV diagnosis and that these delays are often associated with worse long-term outcomes. We hope that by offering clinician-customized, point-of-care access to HBV specialists, they will be able quickly refer their patients to care which can lead to better outcomes.
Features include:
• A database to over 300 credentialed HBV clinicians as verified by the Hepatitis B Foundation.
• Counseling guidance for addressing your patients’ questions and concerns about HBV prevention, testing and treatment
• Patient and clinician educational materials that can be printed directly from your iPhone/iPad (with an Apple® AirPrint enabled printer) or emailed.
