mdgroup is a global digital and patient health services company, pioneering a patient-first approach to clinical research.
We combine our clinical trial and patient support expertise with cutting edge technologies to support patients throughout the entire clinical journey.
Our products and services have been developed patient-first, targeting the specific reasons patients cite for dropping out of a clinical trial. From travel issues to inconvenient locations to delays with expense reimbursement, we have evolved to meet the needs of patients around the globe.
Since we launched we’ve been on a mission to revolutionise the way the healthcare industry approaches product development.
By paying attention to the little details that make the biggest difference, we’ll work with you to drastically reduce patient drop-out rates and boost the success of your clinical trial.
On average 18% of randomized patients drop-out of a clinical trial, and it costs three times as much to replace those patients as it did to recruit them.
Taking a patient-first approach is key to creating a powerful recruitment and retention strategy. Our global team of experts are on-hand 24 hours a day throughout the entire clinical journey, supporting sponsors and CROs to make a difference to the lives of thousands of patients worldwide.
