Summary:
The aim of the project is the establishment and development of an organization that will cover and coordinate the common interests of organizations currently operating for the benefit of people with diabetes in the Czech Republic - Alliance of Diabetes Patients of the Czech Republic (APDCR). A similar umbrella organization with the joint involvement of patients with diabetes of all types and ages and a complete range of activities needed for effective patient advocacy, the formulation of health and follow-up policies is still lacking in the Czech Republic.
Due to the current state of membership bases of most of the potential member organizations, it is not possible for their management to expand the current limited offer of activities. APDCR will help and provide individual member organizations with the necessary and beneficial activities. It will employ professionals in the given areas in order to be a partner of providers and payers of health care, to ensure effective patient advocacy and systemic participation of patients in legislative processes.
It will implement contact with the state administration, control the quality of health services and mediate public control of the system more effectively than individual member organizations can without knowledge-based personnel capacities.
