IMPACT - AndHealth Autoimmune Research Registry

Description

This is a patient research registry aimed at evaluating the effectiveness of a comprehensive, root-cause medical approach ("AndHealth program") for autoimmune disorders. This approach involves a combination of pharmacological and non-pharmacological therapies offered under the care of a licensed physician with the support of health coaches. While protocol guidance is provided, the therapeutic approach is personalized to the individual needs of patients. The autoimmune disorders of focus in this registry include rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis, psoriasis and ankylosing spondylitis. A variety of validated labs, patient-reported outcomes, and medication usage will be assessed among participating patients over a period of up to five years to evaluate the long-term effectiveness of this approach.
