Patient-Centered Outcomes Research at Johns Hopkins

Through an award from The Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI), an independent non-profit organization, the Hopkins team conducted a research study to understand how the lives of people living with RA were affected by their condition.

We invite you to learn about how our PCORI Pilot Study, “Integrating Patient Centered Outcome in Arthritis Clinical Care” got started, what the process was like, what we discovered, and what the patients, doctors, and researchers who took part in the study to say.
