Objectives

  • Describe the global burden of liver disease and explain why it is underdiagnosed.
  • Describe ways that liver disease could be elevated as a priority with a non-hepatologist audience, including primary care providers.
  • Discuss ways hepatology providers can facilitate the early recognition of liver disease in the community.
