Comprehensive care for individuals with hemophilia, von Willebrand's and related bleeding disorders in Region VI is provided through a network of Hemophilia Treatment Centers (HTC's), satellite centers, and through hospitals and clinics located in Region VI.

Region VI includes the states of Texas, Louisiana, Arkansas, and Oklahoma. Each of the Centers provides a full range of diagnostic and treatment facilities with staff trained and dedicated to the effort of providing services to hemophilia patients. They all have at least one nurse providing full time hemophilia care and a psychosocial service provider available to patients. Additionally, a physical therapist, dentist, orthopedist and other medical professionals are available through the center. They will provide comprehensive evaluations where these individuals will be available at a single location and time to evaluate the individual and provide care for their bleeding disorder.
