The current Scheme Administrator role is to: manage and operate a scheme of financial assistance to eligible individuals infected with HIV and/or hepatitis C via NHS-supplied blood or blood products, and their eligible intimates, in line with policies and criteria set by the Department of Health in England. We expect that the new scheme administrator will fulfil the same role in England, this may include operation of the same scheme in Wales and Northern Ireland, subject to the decisions of Ministers in those administrations.
