Clinical Research Patient Finder

Clinical Research Patient Finder, developed by Inovalon, is an AI-powered clinical trial recruitment software designed for researchers, clinical sites, and life sciences organizations seeking to enroll eligible, diverse patients faster and more accurately. By replacing manual pre-screening processes and spreadsheets with automated, real-time eligibility matching, the platform helps reduce enrollment delays, lower trial failure risk, and ultimately accelerate the delivery of life-saving therapies to patients.

The solution connects directly to hospital electronic health records (EHR) to automatically screen patients against study protocols, enabling candidate matching in near real time regardless of how complex or time-sensitive the study design may be. This approach eliminates the bottlenecks and chaos that commonly derail site-based recruitment efforts.

Core Capabilities

• Automated eligibility pre-screening: Patients are screened against trial protocols automatically using EHR data, allowing researchers to identify eligible candidates in minutes rather than weeks.
• Confident patient matching: The platform recruits the right mix of patients without bias or guesswork, ensuring trials remain accurate, representative, and efficient.
• Duplicate enrollment prevention: The system identifies every eligible patient while actively preventing duplicate enrollments, preserving the integrity of trial data.
• Real-time reporting: Site performance and recruitment progress are visible instantly through real-time reports, eliminating the need for manual reporting and reducing the risk of errors.
• Direct EHR integration: A direct connection to EHR data reduces administrative workload and keeps research teams up to date with site activity as it happens.

Key Benefits for Clinical Trial Teams

• End recruitment delays: Find eligible patients in real time without waiting for slow, manual pre-screening workflows.
• Meet enrollment targets: Spot enrollment barriers early and keep recruitment moving with automated tools that surface eligible candidates quickly.
• Preserve trial accuracy: Ensure diverse and representative trial populations by finding every eligible patient and preventing errors that could compromise study results.
• Eliminate spreadsheets: Replace manual tracking and reporting with a connected, automated system that provides a clear, real-time view of recruitment progress across sites.

How It Works

1. The platform ingests and connects to hospital electronic health records at participating clinical sites.
2. Patient records are automatically screened against the specific eligibility criteria and protocols of the clinical study.
3. Eligible candidates are surfaced in near real time, enabling research teams to act quickly regardless of study complexity or time constraints.
4. Recruitment progress and site performance are tracked and reported automatically, keeping all stakeholders informed without manual effort.
