Clinical Trial Eligibility Screener

Inovalon's Clinical Trial Eligibility Screener is a real-time patient screening solution designed for life sciences organizations seeking to accelerate clinical trial recruitment. By leveraging longitudinal, claims-based health data, the tool enables research and recruitment teams to confirm whether a patient meets a trial's exact eligibility criteria in seconds — replacing time-consuming manual chart reviews with fast, data-backed decisions.

The platform is built for teams that need reliable, high-quality referrals to clinical trial sites. It integrates into existing recruitment workflows and draws on one of the largest real-world data assets available, covering over 456 million unique lives, more than 97 billion medical events, 1.1 million physicians, and 724,000 clinical facilities.

Core Screening Capabilities

• Real-Time Screening: Plugs directly into existing recruitment workflows to instantly assess whether a patient is eligible for a given trial.
• Claims-Based Precision: Evaluates eligibility using a patient's full medical claims history — including diagnoses, labs, prescriptions, procedures, and vaccinations — without requiring rechecks.
• Clear, Trusted Results: Delivers one of three outcomes for each eligibility criterion — Pass, Fail, or Inconclusive — with each result validated by clinical experts.
• AI and ML-Powered Logic: Combines artificial intelligence and machine learning with clinical oversight to produce fast and reliable eligibility decisions.

Key Business Benefits

• Slash Screening Time: Reduces what previously took weeks of manual review to a process completed in seconds through real-time, data-backed matching.
• Cut Screen Failures: Ensures only qualified candidates are referred to trial sites, eliminating costly eligibility mismatches and site delays.
• Lower Recruitment Costs: Removes dead-end referrals and reduces unnecessary outreach and screening expenditure.
• Boost Trial Success: Improves enrollment rates and site productivity by maintaining a consistent pipeline of trial-ready patients.

How It Works

1. The screener analyzes each patient's comprehensive claims history spanning diagnoses, laboratory results, prescriptions, procedures, and vaccinations.
2. The system matches this data against the specific inclusion and exclusion criteria defined for the clinical trial.
3. Within seconds, the team receives one of three clear outcomes: Pass (the patient meets all eligibility criteria), Fail (the patient does not qualify), or Inconclusive (the case is flagged for further human review).
4. AI and ML-powered logic, combined with clinical expert oversight, ensures the decisions are both rapid and trustworthy, enabling high-quality site referrals.

The Clinical Trial Eligibility Screener is part of Inovalon's broader suite of Real-World Data and Insights solutions, which also includes tools such as the Clinical Research Patient Finder, SDOH Market Insights, HEOR analytics, and Commercial Analytics — all designed to support confident decision-making across the clinical development and commercialization lifecycle.
