The implementation of excellence centers in specific diseases has been gaining recognition in the field of health; specifically in rheumatoid arthritis, where the prognosis of the disease is related to an early diagnosis and a timely intervention, it is necessary that the provision of health services is developed in an environment of quality, opportunity, and safety with the highest standards of care. A methodology that allows this implementation in such a way that is achievable by the most of the care centers is a priority to achieve a better attention to populations with this disease. In this paper, we propose a systematic and progressive methodology that will help all the institutions to develop successful models without faltering in the process. The expected impact on public health is defined by a better effective coverage of high-quality treatments, obtaining better health outcomes with safety and accessibility that reduces the budgetary impact for the health systems of our countries.
卓越中心在特定疾病中的实施在卫生领域得到了认可；特别是在类风湿性关节炎中，疾病的预后与早期诊断和及时干预有关，因此有必要在质量、机会和安全的环境中提供卫生服务，并提供最高标准的护理。一种能够使大多数护理中心实现这一目标的方法是实现对患有这种疾病的人群进行更好关注的优先事项。在本文中，我们提出了一种系统的、渐进的方法，该方法将帮助所有机构在不陷入困境的情况下开发成功的模式。对公共卫生的预期影响是通过更好地有效覆盖高质量的治疗来定义的，从而获得更好的健康结果，同时具有安全性和可及性，从而降低我们各国卫生系统的预算影响。
