The England Infected Blood Support Scheme (EIBSS) is now closed to new applications
The Government has confirmed that the Infected Blood Support Schemes (IBSS), will remain open for a further calendar year, prior to the Infected Blood Compensation Authority (IBCA) taking responsibility for making Support Scheme payments, as part of the Infected Blood Compensation Scheme. Cabinet Office, IBCA, DHSC and Devolved Governments are working with the IBSS Administrators to make sure the transition is as smooth as possible over the following year. Further detail will be set out in due course.
