How Novelcare benefits your patients
1-MINUTE SUMMARY
Patients join trials for a variety of reasons including altruism, dissatisfaction with current treatments, and lack of coverage for standard of care
Trial treatments are free and studies typically reimburse patients for their time and travel expenses
More than 90% of trial participants would recommend a friend or family member to participate in a study [PubMed]
There's a lot for patients to love about clinical trials
Your patients have their own reasons for joining trials. Some want to contribute to medical science. Others have tried everything else and need new options. Many simply can't afford the standard treatments.
Study medications are provided at no cost. Travel expenses? Covered. Time spent at appointments? Compensated.

Over 90% of trial participants would recommend clinical research to friends and family
It's hard to predict whether a patient would be interested in a trial, or what their motivations are.
But the data is clear: your patients will almost certainly be glad they participated.
In a study of 278 trial participants, less than 2% said they would rule out participating in another. Even more telling is that more than 90% said they would recommend clinical research to their loved ones.
Your patients deserve to know their options
When patients learn about trial opportunities, they often ask "Why didn't I know about this sooner?" Clinical trials can offer hope, financial relief, and a chance to advance medicine - all at the same time.
Doctors are trusted to shepherd patients through the complexity of modern healthcare, and patients expect their doctors to be aware of all the relevant options. We make it practical for you to meet that expectation with regard to local clinical trials.
Ensure your patients are represented
The direction of medical advancement matters, and clinical research gives you an opportunity to guide it to the benefit of your patients.
When your patients participate, they help ensure that treatment safety and efficacy data reflects your patient population. This matters because we know that different populations can respond differently to treatments.
