How it works

  1. Recognizing the critical importance of acquiring and maintaining clinical trial participants Call 4 Health utilizes a combination of recruitment specialists and study-specific recruitment criteria to screen potential participants for entry into our clients’ studies.
  2. Our clinical trial specialists are healthcare professionals who have training in clinical trial recruitment and direct experience in clinical trial management. Call 4 Healths centralized recruitment allows our clients to focus on the management of the trial. Recruitment specialists and other Academic Network professional personnel work with our clients to develop optimally targeted promotions to create patient interest in specific clinical trials.
  3. These promotions include a unique toll-free number to Call 4 Health call center. Using the inclusion/exclusion criteria specifically designed for a trial, our recruitment specialists effectively identify potential participants for enrollment, eliminate those who are not appropriate, and create a database of those who do not meet one study’s criteria but may be suitable for the client’s future studies.

Our online patient recruitment tools can be implemented in combination with an answering service program.
