Response to "A Successful Standardized Academic Inter-professional Post-licensure Education Program Exists to Train MSK Professionals to Become Advanced Practitioners in Arthritis Care: Lessons Learned from the ACPAC Program".

With tremendous gratitude, we thank Drs. Lundon and Shupak for their interest in the recently published article "Core Curriculum to Facilitate the Expansion of a Rheumatology Practice to Include Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants". They have very thoughtfully reviewed the article and highlighted the need to continue to grow the rheumatology workforce to increase access to care for people with rheumatic disease. Our congratulations for the success of the Advanced Clinician Practitioner in Arthritis Care (ACPAC) program, and we applaud and recognize their ongoing efforts.
