The planned establishment of the Centre of Knowledge and Counselling on ME disease has been given the working title Akureyri Clinic. As part of its establishment, the Centre will improve the understanding of ME and related diseases and promote improved services for patients. Among other things, it is planned that GPs will be able to consult the centre regarding cases that require diagnosis confirmation and to provide patients with counselling. The clinic would thus become a coordinating body for services to ME patients nationwide, as well as working on documenting the disease and promoting research.
