S 2560 United States Senate · 118th Congress

Long COVID Support Act

The Long COVID Support Act establishes a voluntary patient registry to collect data on symptoms, treatments, and demographics of individuals with Long COVID and related conditions, with strict privacy protections. It requires the Health and Human Services Secretary to coordinate research, develop plain-language educational materials for the public and health care providers, and submit annual reports to Congress. The bill authorizes $10 million annually for 2024-2028 to fund these activities, including research on treatment disparities and provider training. This legislation directly affects people with Long COVID who choose to participate in the registry and health care providers who receive updated guidance to improve care for affected patients.
