Oh YES!!!! That was the issue with mine! THANKYOU for saying that— the pulmonologist was the main overseer. Not helpful.
Do you feel comfortable saying what program? Or do you fear they’ll be flooded ( very legit fear, mind you)

So, here’s the info I got today:
The Aurora healthcare system, which covers a large swath of SE Wisconsin up to Green Bay and down to the IL border merged with the Advocate system, so now their area is expanded and they are renamed Aurora Advocate. It sounds like with the Aurora and Advocate merger their footprint may also include parts of Illinois, Indiana and Michigan.
To get into their Virtual Long Covid clinic you would need a referral from an “Aurora Advocate” provider - it needn’t be your primary care provider, it could be a specialist. But you need to specifically request the virtual clinic, so that there is no confusion with an in-person clinic at Sinai hospital in Milwaukee. (https://www.advocateaurorahealth.org/)
It doesn’t look like you can even find the Aurora Advocate Virtual Long Covid Clinic on the internet, and their doctors are only recently becoming aware of it. (My PCP just received info about a month ago and passed it along to me.)
