disCOVer 2.0
Diagnose & treat post-COVID effectively
What is it about?
The disCOVer 2.0 project is the continuation of the disCOVer project, which focused on identifying different groups of patients with post-COVID symptoms. The aim of disCOVer 2.0 is now to offer the various patients individually tailored therapy. The Institute of General Practice is involved in a sub-project focusing on the current care of post-COVID patients.
How does the study work?
An online survey is being conducted. In this survey, participants are asked, for example, how long they wait for doctor's appointments, what contact they have had with the healthcare system to date and how high their own financial contribution was.
