Hepatitis C virus (HCV) testing is recommended for people at high risk for infection, including those with substance use disorders (SUD). Little is known about the cascade of HCV care (including testing, diagnosis, and treatments) among patients with SUD in real-world clinical practice. This study aims to characterize the HCV cascade of care and identify the factors associated with HCV testing and diagnosis among Florida Medicaid beneficiaries with SUD. A retrospective cohort analysis of Florida Medicaid data (2013–2018) was conducted in 2020 for patients aged 18–64 years with a newly diagnosed SUD (year 2012 was used to ascertain 1-year prior enrollment). A generalized estimating equation identified factors associated with HCV testing; multivariable logistic model identified factors associated with HCV diagnosis. Of the 156,770 patients with SUD, 18% were tested for HCV at least once. Among the tested patients, 8% had HCV diagnoses. Among the 2,177 patients having an HCV diagnosis, 11% initiated HCV treatments and 96% of them completed the HCV treatments. Factors associated with being less likely to receive HCV testing included being male (AOR=0.73, 95% CI=0.71, 0.75) and White (AOR=0.85, 95% CI=0.83, 0.87), whereas individuals who were male (AOR=1.49, 95% CI=1.35, 1.66) and White (AOR=2.71, 95% CI=2.38, 3.08) were more likely to be diagnosed with HCV. The odds of receiving HCV testing significantly increased annually (AOR=1.06, 95% CI=1.05, 1.07). Future studies are warranted to investigate barriers for access to HCV testing and treatment among Florida Medicaid beneficiaries with SUD, especially for White male individuals.
