Lazarus et al. evaluate the cascade of care for people with hepatitis C virus (HCV) treated within six public hospitals in Madrid, Spain. The authors report on potential gaps in care in specific populations, including inadequate testing and loss to follow-up, and their implications on HCV micro-elimination in Madrid.
