  • This is a consultancy report by The King's Fund for the Rheumatology Futures Group, a consortium of the main patient, professional and pharmaceutical organisations involved in rheumatoid arthritis care.
  • Improving the quality of care for patients with long-term conditions is a priority at national and local levels in the NHS. Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic, progressive and disabling autoimmune condition that affects around 420,000 people in the United Kingdom. RA is associated with substantial health, social and economic costs, ranging from direct care such as joint replacement, to the indirect impact of shorter working lives. There is much potential to improve outcomes for people with RA through earlier identification and specialist treatment allied to better support for patient selfmanagement. However, there is a lack of understanding on the quality of RA care and the way in which recent changes in the health service have impacted on both patients and care professionals. [Summary]
