“ Arthritis, the oldest known group of chronic diseases, is still the Nation's greatest crippler. At least 35 million Americans-about one in seven-have some form of arthritis.
The total cost of arthritis must be counted not only in terms of socioeconomic losses, but also in terms of human suffering and disability. Uncontrolled arthritis has major negative social, psychological, and economic impacts not only on the patients who suffer from arthritis, but also on their families and on our society in general. ”
