Abstract

New hepatitis C virus (HCV) point-of-care testing technologies need models of care which involve new tasks to be performed by the health workforce (e.g., pathologists, community health workers, and peer workers). This change in tasks may challenge existing core patterns of work and professional identities. This study explores the interactions between professional identity and new technologies of HCV point-of-care testing.
