PREPARE: Continuous Monitoring 2025
As we approach the end of 2024, we also approach the next Continuous Monitoring exercise that will take place between January and February 2025.
Before the end of the year there are 2 key things every Endo-ERN member should check:
Is your e-REC up to date with all new patients recorded? e-Reporting of Rare Conditions (e-REC) (lumc.nl) Have you any other Endo-ERN activities to complete and be scored on? HCP Performance Member Advice – Endo-ERN
If you want support in any of this please contact our Endo-ERN project mailbox.
