RISE is now accepting requests for use of available data, and the ACR would like to see it utilized by more academic practitioners.
“Academic researchers have an unparalleled opportunity to study variations in the clinical practice of rheumatology and to use this variation to gain new insights into how to best treat patients, minimize side effects and improve outcomes,” says Dr. Yazdany. “We have never before had an opportunity to learn from every patient who walks into our office doors. RISE allows us to do that.”
