Description

This service covers suspected and newly diagnosed myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME) and chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) patients and long covid adult patients aged 18 and over, including children and young people transitioning into this adult specialist service from diagnosis, who are with a Registered GP within Suffolk and North East Essex Integrated Care System (SNEE ICS). The service also includes a proportion of severely affected up to 25% of the ME&CFS population already diagnosed, who may require additional support by the specialist service in collaboration with primary care and community services. Key aims of the service are to provide early ME&CFS and/or Long Covid diagnosis for patients across SNEE ICS with a personalised care and support plan for ongoing management and signposting to appropriate services. The service will also play an important role in supporting those who are severely affected people with ME&CFS and/or Long Covid, including supporting children and young people with a diagnosis of Long Covid and/or ME&CFS transitioning into this adult service with the intention to relieve pressure on acute and primary care services.
