You should test HCV QUALITATIVE PCR test repeated twice after the treatment 6 months apart. there is no need if repeating every year.
Hepatitis B is vaccine preventable disease so once vaccinated you may check vaccine response but again no need of screening for Hepatitis B unless very high risk professional exposure.
