The RISE Registry Delivers Practice-Based Evidence to Rheumatologists

Figure 2. Overview of the process to request and complete a project using data from the Rheumatology Informatics System for Effectiveness (RISE) registry.

The process to review requests for use of RISE data can take two to three months, so if the data will be used for a grant-funded research project, the request should be completed early enough to allow for approval prior to the grant submission. To learn more about the process, visit the RISE for Research section of www.RISEregistry.org. Investigators are also encouraged to contact RISE staff directly at [email protected] to learn more about data that may be available through RISE for their research.

Note: The authors are an inter-professional rheumatology team that consists of four current/past members of the ARP Research Subcommittee, two RISE registry staff members and a member of the ACR Registries and Health Information Technology Committee.
