Precision medicine relies on understanding how differences affect drug response. Researchers can develop more precise treatments that are effective for more patients when prioritizing diversity.
To conduct meaningful research, we must be sure to view these studies through patients’ eyes. The patient perspective — in all its diversity — must be embedded into clinical trials from the very start.
The home care industry is booming. As Baby Boomers age and more families seek in-home solutions for loved ones, demand for home care services is at an all-time high.
Leaders need a framework to identify, understand, effectively address diversity gaps, and measure improvement across the continuum of care. A data-driven approach can provide valuable insights into demographic trends, disparities in healthcare access and outcomes, and the underlying factors contributing to these discrepancies.
The healthcare industry is sitting on a wealth of data gathered from electronic health records, commercial pharmacies, health systems and payers, and health tech companies. So much that it makes up one-third of the world’s data. Pharmaceutical companies need to tap into this type of data to build inclusive clinical trials,
We must engage, train and support more physicians as investigators to enable the opportunity for their patients to have access to clinical trials. As an industry, we should be adding anywhere from 10% to 20% new investigators every year to meet the patient access needs for clinical trials.
We’ve always known that patients are out there — but EHR data are the map we need to find them, connect with them, and ultimately engage them in the development of new medicines, therapies, and products that will safely serve everyone in need, regardless of race or ethnicity.
Break down the silos. Take control of your provider data.
