- Abstract
We recognized the potential for early intervention in psoriasis both to improve patient care and to integrate service delivery.4,5 This led to the development of the Psoriasis Rapid Access Clinic (PRAC), an innovative consultant-led, multidisciplinary clinic based within a community setting in Salford, North West England. In the case of psoriasis, this means early access to specialist care, at which point more vulnerable patients can be identified and their care escalated, while integrating primary and secondary care services to optimize disease management for individual patients. Dear Editor, Psoriasis is a complex, immune-mediated inflammatory disease associated with several important medical conditions including arthritis, cardiometabolic disease and mood disorders.
