ILADS & HHS Partner for Lyme Care

ILADS and the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) have announced a strategic public-private partnership aimed at improving awareness, education, and access to care for people affected by Lyme disease, tick-borne illnesses, and related chronic conditions. Through the collaboration, HHS will connect patients to ILADS' clinician locator and educational resources, helping individuals find experienced healthcare providers. The partnership is part of a broader federal effort to advance research, innovation, diagnostics, and patient support for Lyme disease and other often-overlooked chronic illnesses.
