Strengthening Global Ties: MDI Joins FSHD Europe, Advances Registry Work, and Supports Patient Voice in Access to Treatments
MDI has joined FSHD Europe, a key alliance supporting patients with facioscapulohumeral muscular dystrophy across the continent, aiming to improve diagnosis, care, and treatment access. We also recently took part in the TREAT-NMD Annual Curators Meeting, gaining valuable insights as we continue to develop a national neuromuscular registry for Ireland. Lastly, MDI highlights the role of patient organisations in Health Technology Assessments (HTAs) — a crucial step in securing access to new treatments. We may seek patient input for upcoming HTA submissions, so stay tuned for future opportunities to share your voice.
