Description

For persons who have ever had arthritis or rheumatism in the past 12 months and who are currently seeing at least two other persons who provide care for their arthritis, ARTHCARE2HR reports the amount of time (in hours) that it takes the person to get to the place of the second other person who provides care for his/her arthritis.

Users should combine ARTHCARE2HR with ARTHCARE2MI, which reports the amount of time in minutes, to get the complete amount of time that it takes to get to the place of the second other person for care.
