In FY 20, The Sickle Cell Treatment Demonstration Program served more than 25,000 individuals living with Sickle Cell Disease across the United States.
Sickle Cell Treatment Demonstration Program served more than 25,000 individuals living with sickle cell disease(SCD) across the United States. Providers participating in the program prescribed hydroxyurea (a disease-modifying therapy) to 70% of their pediatric population and 14% of their pediatric population with other disease-modifying treatments. 57% of their adult patients received hydroxyurea prescriptions and 33% of their adult patients received other disease modifying therapy prescriptions. Furthermore, SCD providers indicated that 65% of eligible individuals with SCD (ages 2-16) had a transcranial doppler screening within the past 15 months, an important tool for detecting stroke risk which is elevated in individuals with SCD.

In FY 23, the Sickle Cell Treatment Demonstration Program served more than 25,000 individuals living with sickle cell disease (SCD) across the United States. Providers participating in the program prescribed disease-modifying therapies to more than 75% of their patient population. Furthermore, almost 3,800 providers participated in SCD-based Project ECHO sessions or telementoring calls, which helps expand the number of providers with improved SCD knowledge and care tools and resources.
