Mid-Atlantic Region III Core Center for Federally Funded HTCs

A national network of more than 140 Hemophilia Treatment Centers (HTCs) is supported and funded by the Maternal and Child Health Bureau (MCHB) of the Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). HTCs are specialized health care centers staffed by a team of doctors, nurses, social workers, physical therapists and other health professionals with expertise in the treatment of bleeding disorders.
