Dear Members
We are currently writing a consultation response for NICE on access to rheumatoid arthritis drugs. We are looking for Members who have a DAS score below 5.1, and therefore don’t quite meet the criteria for biologics, and whose RA is not well controlled (really struggling, worried about work, etc). If this applies to you and would like to provide us with a paragraph about your experiences and the impact this has had on you, then we would be really grateful if you could get in touch with us as soon as possible.
The deadline for us to respond to NICE is Friday, 22 February, so we will need to obtain written comments and phone interviews in the next couple of days. To get in touch regarding your experiences, please contact our Government Affairs Manager, Jamie Hewitt, on
jamie@nras.org.ukThank you in advance for your help.
