Description
For persons who have ever had arthritis or rheumatism in the past 12 months and who are currently seeing at least one other person to receive care for their arthritis, ARTHCARE1HR reports the amount of time (in hours) that it takes the person to get to the place of the other person who is providing care.
Users should combine ARTHCARE1HR with ARTHCARE1MI, 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 other person for care.
