Objectives: Gaps in linkage-to-care remain the barriers toward hepatitis C virus (HCV) elimination in the directly-acting-antivirals (DAA) era, especially during SARS Co–V2 pandemics. We established an outreach project to target HCV micro-elimination in HCV-hyperendemic villages. Methods: The COMPACT provided “door-by-door” screening by an “outreach HCV-checkpoint team” and an “outreach HCV-care team” for HCV diagnosis, assessment and DAA therapy in Chidong/Chikan villages between 2019 and 2021. Participants from neighboring villages served as Control group. Results: A total of 5731 adult residents participated in the project.
