Before the next time you fill out the questionnaire for the visit or the short surveys, you will be shown the GTCs once for confirmation. In the event of a new version or changes, you will be informed again via mySCQM. You can find the GTCs in mySCQM at any time.
Measures to promote generics and biosimilars came into force on January 1, 2024. The Swiss Rheumatism League explains the changes that you should know about as a patient. Pharmacists are now allowed to replace an original biological medicine prescribed by a doctor with an available, cheaper biosimilar. Important: If this is the case for you and the medication in mySCQM is no longer up to date, please inform your doctor. Alternatively, you can also contact the SCQM office so that your medication can be entered correctly in the SCQM database again. In this way, you will help to maintain the integrity of the SCQM data - thank you very much for your valuable contribution!

We look forward to welcoming you or your team to the webinar.
In the July 2022 newsletter, we shared a survey about their experiences with methotrexate with those affected who are included in the SCQM register.
Kristina Bürki, nursing expert in rheumatology at the University Hospital Zurich, who is involved in the international project, provides us with a lay summary of the results of the survey here.
Our lunch webinar took place on 9 November 2023. This was recorded and is now available on our website.

Just in time for the go live of the new website, the new brochure for patients is available (in German, in French, in Italian). It is intended to provide patients with a basis for deciding to make their data available to research and thus make an important contribution to research and quality management.
We hope you enjoy reading it.
