According to WHO Global health sector strategy on viral hepatitis 2016- 2021, WHO aim to global eliminate HBV infection within 2030. Main strategies for achievement are effective prevention and treatment.~International and national guideline for HBV infection treatment recommend initiated antiviral in high HBV viral loads patients with significant liver inflammation and significant liver fibrosis. Thus, HBV viral load and liver elastography are required for indication assessment. In low-to-middle income country such as Thailand, HBV viral loads and liver elastography are limited available in seconds to tertiary care hospital.~Recently, many of simplified scoring system (TREAT-B score, WHO-simplified score and REACH-B score) were developed for assessment of antiviral initiation.~This study aim to evaluate the performance of simplified score for chronic HBV treatment compare to Thailand and international standard guideline.
