NHS England has published the NHS plan for improving long COVID services. The plan provides an update on progress on the 10 actions set out in June 2021 and outlines the framework for deploying the £90m committed by the NHS for long COVID services during the 2022/23 financial year.

The plan, which has been developed with expert insights from those with lived experience of long COVID, clinicians and partners across the health and care system, builds on the significant progress made over the past two years and details further action to ensure that support is there for everyone who needs it, and patients requiring specialist assessment and treatment can access care in a timely way.

Access to Mersey Care’s Long COVID clinics is via GP referral, with information available on our website for residents of Liverpool, Sefton, St Helens and Knowsley.
