Multidisciplinary Hepatology Care for Advanced Practice Providers

In today's transforming healthcare system, Advanced Practice Providers (APPs) engaging in multidisciplinary hepatology can assist with comprehensive and patient-centered management of liver-related disorders. With the growing metabolic liver disease burden, APPs are required to manage multi-specialty collaboration for streamlined pathway diagnosis, referrals, and follow-up management. Participating in multidisciplinary hepatology for APPs emphasizes collaboration, optimized and structured referral pathways, and operationalized integrated approaches concerning liver and related cardiometabolic risk factors. With the MASLD Community Network (MCN) APPs can strengthen existing collaborative care models and encourage the greater management of complex liver disease in patients.

Multidisciplinary hepatology care provided for advanced practice providers is a pathway for structured and collaborative multidisciplinary approaches for liver care. Through aligned referral pathways, collaborative care models, and integrated metabolic management, APPs can enhance the early identification, improvement and optimization of clinical management, and mitigate the risk of liver-related complications. Thanks to the expert educational resources, and professional collaboration through the MASLD Community Network, advanced practice providers can confidently facilitate and implement multidisciplinary approaches to liver care that are patient-centered, and aligned with the best clinical practice guidelines.
