ePatientFinder has signed a two-year agreement with Rep Network through which it will expand clinical trial access across the United States.

ePatientFinder, an EHR-driven clinical trial site optimization and patient identification company, has partnered with Rep Network, a network of more than 2,000 independent sales representatives and distributors.

“With a two-sided marketplace and our technology, we can connect chronically ill patients to clinical trials and the network of providers with the Rep Network,” Tom Dorsett, CEO of ePatientFinder, told Outsourcing-Pharma.com.

According to Dorsett, this allows ePatientfinder to expand its patient-focused network across the country and to implement its patient engagement and trial optimization.

The alliance is a two-year agreement with options to extend the agreement further.

“Currently, we are launching in select MSAs [metropolitan statistical areas], with plans to expand nationwide in the near term,” said Dorsett.

“ePatientfinder is always looking at opportunities to create business relationships that will be mutually beneficial and ultimately improve both the clinical trial process and the provider/patient experience,” he added.
