HealthMatch was founded to democratize access to clinical trials. There are widely publicized challenges to achieving just representation of our society and this has been reflected through decades of clinical trial participation statistics.

We have embarked on a mission to collect the data, share the drivers and champion the voice of interested trial participants so that as an industry we are better positioned to drive positive change from actionable insights.

7,903 responses from HealthMatch patients...

We have undertaken one of the largest clinical trial patient engagement surveys ever undertaken.

We've heard from underrepresented patients across all race/ethnicity segments, including Black/African American, Hispanic, Asian, American Indian/Alaska Native, Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander and White.

87% of responses interested in further exploration...

We have clear avenues for further research and engagement to build a holistic understanding of systemic issues by continuing to explore

  • Interactions with the health system
  • Expectations from clinical trials
  • Drivers and disruptors of engagement

A deep dive into patient experiences

90%
of all respondents
expect research clinics to provide flexible appointment times - including outside ordinary business hours.

HealthMatch is uniquely positioned to accomplish this with a unique view of the industry; and direct connections with patients that are ready and willing to engage with clinical trials if given the opportunity.

HealthMatch is a clinical trial recruitment platform with over 1.1 million patients. We use data-rich profiles of each patient to pre-screen and connect them with clinical trials to in real-time.

We know our patients

The broad footprint of our patients and responses across the United States gives us confidence in the robustness and utility of our data. Our team talks with patients every day to hear their stories so that we can advocate on their behalf.

“I have tried to participate in several clinical trials and have been turned down because of various medical conditions such as blood clots and distance to receive treatments. I am so interested in becoming involved in expanding my life expectancy and helping finding a cure for Parkinson's Disease.
