Some groups of patients have their own associations and we encourage and support other groups to form associations since we think it is important for each disease to have association or at least a support group.

The association also is a member of the National Alliance for Rare Diseases of R. Macedonia (13 organizations representing different rare diseases and patients rights).  The association does not represent rare diseases that are not registered members in the association.

In Macedonia there are other diagnosed rare diseases. From 2015 there is a register for RD at the Ministry of Health – more about that can be found in the program for RD from 2016 –  Programa za lekuvanje na retki bolesti vo R.M. za 2016. (Translation in English will be available soon)
