Organization

The launch of the HemoNED registry in 2016 is a joint initiative of the Dutch Hemophilia Treaters Society (NVHB), a sub-association of the Dutch Haematology Society, and the Netherlands Hemophilia Patient Society (NVHP). All Dutch accredited hemophilia treatment centres partake in the registry. The management of the registry is carried out by the HemoNED Foundation, and its policy is determined by the Steering Committee. The management and organization of the HemoNED registry are described in a Governance document.
