The published policy has been updated, effective from 13 June 2022, to link to the published report of the Independent Advisory Group commissioned by the Department of Health and Social Care (DHSC) to advise on the groups of patients likely to be at highest risk of deterioration, hospitalisation or death from a COVID infection. The report confirms the groups of ‘highest’ risk patients who are potentially eligible for COVID treatments under this policy. Clinicians are asked to note that figure 1 of the report refers to adults (aged 18 years and over) and figure 2 refers to children (aged 12-17 years).
There are no other material changes to the policy.
