Leavitt Partners is lobbying Congress on behalf of the estimated three to nine million Americans who may have ongoing symptoms after an acute infection of COVID-19, which may impact their return to work or their normal lives.
Former Utah governor & US Health and Human Services secretary Mike Leavitt and Nancy-Ann DeParle, who was deputy chief of policy for president Barack Obama, unveiled the COVID Patient Recovery Alliance in April to help members of the healthcare community and decision-makers meet the challenges presented by long-COVID.
The most commonly reported symptoms of long-COVID are fatigue, muscle aches, shortness of breath, difficulty in breathing, coughing, brain fog and chest pain.
Leavitt Partners is pressing Congress for policies related to developing national solutions that coordinate diverse data sources, inform the development of models of care, and ensure adequate payment for long-COVID patients, with a focus on the most vulnerable.
