AK LD ECHO: Ensuring Regular HCC Surveillance

AK Liver Disease ECHO is a comprehensive program to assist Tribal Healthcare Providers to provide better care to Alaska Native/American Indian patients with liver disease. It aims to increase Tribal health care providers’ knowledge about diagnosis, treatment, management, and prevention of liver disease.

Each session begins with a liver disease didactic presented by a subject matter expert followed by one or more case presentations by a provider(s) to the subject matter experts who can provide holistic, best practices input, and a panel discussion.
