Bristol and Severn Operational Delivery Network
(ODN)
For the treatment of Hepatitis C, NHS England have created 22
Operational Delivery Networks (ODNs) across England - driving
improvements in treatment in local areas, ensuring all patients can
access the treatment they need, regardless of where they live.
This will enable improvements in areas with historically low
service provision.
NHS England plan to be the first in the world to eliminate
Hepatitis C by 2025, which has meant additional funding is
available to source and treat patients in the UK.
The Bristol and Severn Region Hepatitis C Network (ODN)
incorporates a main hub, namely University Hospitals Bristol NHS
Trust, alongside further treatment centres working across the
region in Bath (Royal United Hospitals Bath), Gloucestershire
(Gloucestershire Royal Hospital NHS Foundation Trust), North
Bristol (North Bristol NHS Trust), and Yeovil (Yeovil District
Hospital). Click on the following links to view the ODN Area
