Hepatitis medical care coordinators (HMCCs) in Japan are trained by local governments and regional core centers, and are expected to play an active role in various aspects of hepatitis countermeasures. A 2019 survey revealed varied activity statuses of HMCCs among facilities. This study surveyed the present status of HMCCs in 21 of the 72 regional core centers in the fiscal year 2021.A total of 951 HMCCs were trained at these 21 facilities. The 17 participating centers of the 2019 survey indicated a slight increase in the proportion of HMCCs who actively contributed to hepatitis patient care, from 84.2% to 85.8%.Despite the COVID-19 pandemic, HMCCs remained active in many facilities.
