This interactive 90-minute training provides HBV prescribers an opportunity to apply their knowledge and skills to practical case studies spanning diagnosis to treatment initiation and ongoing monitoring.
Case scenarios are developed by ASHM clinical advisors or local experts to meet the identified learning needs of ASHM’s HBV prescribers, which vary from each State and Territory.
Attendees are also encouraged to submit their own cases for discussion. You can receive a second HBV Prescriber Point by submitting and discussing one of your own de-identified patient cases on the night. Please send any cases to [email protected] by Monday 24th August 2026.
