Recruitment & retention

How we hit enrollment, study after study.

01

35,000+ patient registry

Accumulated across 30+ years and shared by all three sites — pre-screening starts the day a study is awarded, not the day it activates.

02

In-house recruitment team

Recruitment is a staffed function, not an afterthought — dedicated recruiters work the registry, referrals, and digital channels for every study.

03

AI-scaled recruitment & pre-screening

AI platforms scale our outreach and pre-screening to match the demands of fast-moving, high-volume studies — and every AI touchpoint is verified by a human recruiter before a patient moves forward.

04

Consent-managed digital outreach

Targeted, HIPAA-conscious social and digital advertising managed in-house, with creative tailored per indication.

The result: 100% enrollment performance and 95%+ subject retention across our portfolio.

Technology & data

A technology-forward network.

eSource at every site

CRIO runs all three locations — source data is captured electronically at the point of care, never transcribed from paper.

Data entry within 24 hours

Visit data is entered and visible within a day, so queries close fast and your data cuts stay current.

Remote monitoring from day one

Monitors get secure remote access to source — fewer on-site visits, faster verification, and dedicated workstations when they do come.

eRegulatory

Regulatory documents are electronic across the network — one centralized team maintains them for all three sites.

AI-assisted quality oversight

We use proprietary AI-based systems internally to help drive quality and compliance across our operations.

Zero FDA 483s

Across 30+ years and 500+ studies. Quality is caught internally, not at inspection.
