10 September 2020
In this policy statement, released in September 2020, we reflect on the issues rheumatology services will be facing now and in the coming months to restore services.
Rheumatology services are challenged with restoring services and addressing the backlog on work, while continuing to operate with increased infection control measures and social distancing.
BSR is providing support to the rheumatology community throughout the COVID-19 pandemic from our gold standard risk-stratification to our work with NICE and NHSE to contribute to guidance on managing rheumatology and MSK patients in the context of COVID-19.
