PATIENT EXPERT CENTER
In 2018, a groundbreaking collaboration was launched at the initiative of ReumaNet, with the aim of building a foundation that connects patient organizations in training patients to become representatives of their patient community during interactions with various healthcare stakeholders. These stakeholders include not only the patients themselves, but also government services, hospitals, industry and other relevant parties.
This initiative resulted in the successful establishment of the Patient Expert Center (PEC) in 2019, an independent non-profit organization that is continuously growing in membership, partners and sponsors. It remains a strongly anchored initiative, embraced as enthusiastically by countless parties involved as at the start of this inspiring process!
