Scout Clinical – Supporting Clinical Trials Through Patient Support

KimberLee Heidmann, Executive Vice President of Patient Experience and Customer Success at Scout Clinical, part of the Meeting Protocol Worldwide family, discusses Scout Clinical’s mission to help patients stay enrolled in clinical trials. On average, clinical trial participants must travel over 60 miles one way to visit clinical trial sites, contributing to just over half of all trials being terminated due to insufficient patient enrollment and retention.
