Engagement
Connect real-world clinical data to trial identification, pre-screening, and study operations without asking sites to do double data entry.
A clinical trial interoperability consultant designs the data path between EHRs and research workflows: which FHIR resources support cohort identification and pre-screening, how patients are matched across systems, how consent is captured and honored, and how site integration is standardized so each new site is a repeatable onboarding rather than a custom build.
Translate eligibility criteria into the resources and fields that are reliably populated, and be explicit about criteria that clinical data cannot evaluate.
Link records across clinical and research systems, with thresholds, exception handling, and audit trails defined up front.
Capture, represent, and honor consent across systems, with IRB, privacy, and data use requirements reflected in the design.
A repeatable onboarding pattern so adding a site is configuration and testing rather than a new integration project.
Engagements are scoped to a study, a program, or a platform. Scope and fees are agreed in writing before work begins.
Answers
Direct answers, written to stand on their own.
It can support identification and pre-screening, narrowing a population before manual review. Some eligibility criteria are not represented in structured clinical data at all, so a workable design states which criteria the data can evaluate and which still require chart review.
Governance and matching more often than transport: unresolved data use and consent questions, patient linkage that cannot be trusted across systems, and site-by-site custom builds that never become repeatable.
Generally no. Standardized API access to certified EHR technology means most work sits in mapping, matching, consent handling, and workflow design rather than in changing the source system.
