The Patient Engagement App Challenge

We know that mobile apps can be effective tools to engage patients. How about engaging patients for enrollment into clinical trials?

If you're an app developer, here is your chance to transform the clinical trial experience for patients — submit apps that educate, engage, and empower participants enrolled in clinical studies.

Clinical research plays a vital role in the process of bringing new treatments to patients and advancing clinical care. However, despite its importance, there are multiple challenges associated with clinical research, with participant engagement and retention being one of them.

The Patient Engagement App Challenge is asking developers from across the globe to submit apps that educate, engage, and empower participants enrolled in clinical studies. Using the Health IT movement as a launching pad, developers can help transform the clinical trial experience for patients by using software to improve patient education, communication, scheduling, medication adherence and more!
