The Post-COVID-19 Interdisciplinary Clinical Care Network aims to support the best possible outcomes for people recovering from lingering symptoms after a COVID-19 infection, through education, care and research.
The Network is a partnership between the provincial Ministry of Health, PHSA, Providence Health Care (which manages the provincial virtual clinic), B.C.’s regional health authorities, patients and research organizations across the province.
PC-ICCN delivers clinical care through a province-wide virtual Post-COVID Recovery Clinic serving people throughout B.C. The Clinic is is an interdisciplinary rehabilitation focused virtual clinic, staffed by allied health professionals, nurses, physicians and other team members. It focuses on teaching self-management techniques to people living with long COVID.
You can be referred if you have a BC Services Card and you're still experiencing symptoms that limit your function and quality of life three (3) months or more after your COVID-19 infection. You do not need a positive COVID test. Speak to your family doctor or nurse practitioner about a referral.

For researchers
Research information for patients
The best way to prevent long COVID is to not have COVID-19 in the first place. Staying up to date with COVID-19 vaccines, in combination with other measures like masking and handwashing, can significantly reduce your risk of a COVID-19 infection. COVID-19 vaccinations are free to anyone 6 months or older living in British Columbia. Visit
the BC Centre for Disease Control to learn more.
If you are living with long COVID, getting your COVID vaccine will decrease your risk of getting sick with COVID-19 again.
If you do get COVID-19 again, you will experience less severe symptoms, including a lower risk of cardiovascular complications. You will also have a lower risk of hospitalization or death from a COVID-19 infection.
