Residents of rural areas face unique challenges when seeking care and treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC), including oncology workforce shortages, limited availability of cancer treatments, and transportation barriers. Rates of smoking, excessive drinking, obesity, and diabetes—all of which can increase the chances of developing HCC—are also higher in rural communities. Thus, primary care clinicians who serve these populations play an essential role in identifying patients who are at risk and ensuring they receive appropriate management. In this case-based CME/CE activity, expert faculty will guide you through real-world patient scenarios to explore HCC risk factors, best practices for screening and surveillance, and treatment considerations for advanced liver disease.
