Summary

This project will be conducted in two phases. Phase 1: RA patients will be recruited to participate in five repeated examinations occurring in one day to compare between and within specialties, ensuring reasonable equivalency of examination findings. Phase 2: RA patients living \> 100 km from Saskatoon will be randomized to the intervention or control group, with both groups having three follow-up appointments in 3-month intervals. The intervention group will be evaluated by a physiotherapist supported by a rheumatologist through videoconferencing, while the control group will continue to travel to Saskatoon for follow-up care.
