Prevention of de novo hepatitis B infection after liver transplantation with allografts from hepatitis B core antibody positive donors.

abstract：UNLABELLED:Medicare pays for 80% of the cost of immunosuppressant agents needed within the first 3 years of solid organ transplantation; however, many patients cannot afford the remaining 20%. Furthermore, many patients who are beyond 3 years post-transplantation and have prescription coverage cannot afford the co-paym...
