What is unique about Arthritis-health.com?

While there are many e-health sites, Arthritis-health.com is the only arthritis portal that supports the education of patients through a combination of:

• 100% original, peer-reviewed content
  All of the content on Arthritis-health.com is original and written specifically for Arthritis-health users. Further, the content is reviewed by at least one member of the Medical Advisory Board before being added to the site. The peer-reviewed process helps ensure that the articles are accurate, complete, balanced and free from commercial influence.
• Comprehensive information and services
  Arthritis-health.com provides in-depth coverage of the most common issues that patients ask about and is frequently updated with new and useful information including: clear animations of anatomy, conditions, procedures, and more.
• Independence
  Arthritis-health.com educates patients in a straightforward, informative manner without bias. Unlike other health portals, Arthritis-health.com is not owned or directed by companies that sell health/medical condition related products or medication. None of the articles are written or influenced by companies trying to sell or solicit business. All advertisements and sponsorships are clearly identified and labeled.

What is the purpose of the site?

Our business model is simple: we believe that high quality and reliable content and services will attract users seeking information about arthritis and arthritis related conditions, and that a high number of users will, in turn, attract sponsorships from corporations, advertisements, and subscriptions from arthritis specialists.

Importantly, we believe that providing the highest quality patient education on the Internet helps arthritis specialists serve their patients; we believe that a well-educated patient will heal faster and have fewer recurrences of pain, and we believe that all of this can be achieved without commercial bias.

What is the quality of the content?

The medical content on this site has been reviewed by health professionals. Our approach requires the authors to base their writing on verifiable facts and to clearly note when stating an opinion or topic that is controversial. At least one member of our Medical Advisory Board reviews every article prior to publication on the site.
