NextGen Healthcare has entered a collaboration with Circuit Clinical to enhance trial access to patients of Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) through more than 14,000 providers that leverage the former’s solutions.

Such research-as-care can boost health outcomes while also generating revenues for the participating clinics.
The latest partnership between the companies will facilitate in bolstering diverse subject participation in clinical trials and offers enhanced health equity by offering access to such populations.
Furthermore, the alliance adds to the mission of the NextGen Community Health Collaborative, a project announced late last year to provide comparative analytics, data benchmarking and reporting services.
The initiative also offers a setting for members to network and exchange best practices to progress community health and health equity mission among underserved people.

“Combining NextGen Healthcare’s comprehensive data insights and national reach with Circuit Clinical’s expert ecosystem offers pharmaceutical, biotech and vaccine companies a ground-breaking opportunity for accelerating therapeutic development and improving diversity in clinical trials.”
