Follow on Google News | Multiple Sclerosis Coalition Releases Consensus on TreatmentNew paper sets the standard for treatment of multiple sclerosis with drug therapy
The development of this ground-breaking paper is a step forward in the MSC’s mission “to increase opportunities for cooperation and provide greater opportunity to leverage the effective use of resources for the benefit of the MS community.” The final paper was endorsed by all eight member organizations, and subsequently endorsed by Americas Committee for Treatment and Research in Multiple Sclerosis (ACTRIMS). It will be distributed at the joint meeting of ACTRIMS and ECTRIMS (the European sister organization) “Treatment of MS is complex, and the choice of a therapy may depend on several variables” says MSC President Doug Franklin. “This consensus paper will aid physicians and their MS patients in the decision-making process. Our hope is also that it will be useful for healthcare insurers and managed care organizations by demonstrating the need for access to the full range of available options for the treatment of this complicated and highly individualized condition.” Member organizations of the MS Coalition are: Accelerated Cure Project, the Consortium of MS Centers, Can Do Multiple Sclerosis, the International Organization of MS Nurses, Multiple Sclerosis Association of America, Multiple Sclerosis Foundation, National Multiple Sclerosis Society, and United Spinal Association Find the Multiple Sclerosis Coalition online at http://ms-coalition.org or visit MSC on Facebook at www.facebook.com/ End
