- What it does
- Program activities under this funding will allow for CDC to partner with multiple organizations to benefit individuals by substantially reducing viral hepatitis transmission, identifing those that are chronically infected and linking infected individuals with treatment if appropriate. Specifically, the program activities may include but are not limited to: 1. Increasing the proportion of persons living with HCV and HBV who are aware of their infection and referred for prevention and clinical care services. 2. Expanding and improving efforts to develop and disseminate viral hepatitis training and educational materials targeting the public and private sector health care professionals to build capacity to assess, test and medically manage populations at risk for chronic HCV and HBV infection. 3. Supporting state and local health departments and other organizations in linking HCV infected persons to community health centers, clinics serving injection drug users, and other health organizations seeing individuals potentially infected with chronic viral hepatitis. 4. Additional support will be provided for program monitoring, evaluation, capacity building, and technical assistance.

How to read these numbers
- Committed through this program
Money committed under this assistance listing (its CFDA program), counted in the year each action happened.
- How it's paid
Most programs pay out one way — a grant, or a direct payment to individuals; the flow bar only appears when a program genuinely mixes types.
- Some recipients aren't itemized
For entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare, the government reports one aggregate instead of naming tens of millions of people, so the recipient roster isn't part of the public record.
- Awards, counted once
An award count is the number of distinct awards with at least one action that year — each counted once, however many times it was amended.
- The colored bars
Every bar on this page splits by how the money moves:
