Serving Patients. Helping Sites Enroll.

150,000+ Blood Tests per Month

Care Access provides health screenings that include a wide range of lab tests, from standard panels to advanced biomarker screens like pTau and Lp(a). They often extend beyond bloodwork, with follow-up exams such as fibroscans or spirometry, and incorporate medical record review to provide deeper clinical insight.

250+ Research Education Workshops Every Month

Led by Care Access medical educators, our workshops bring clinical research education directly to communities. By partnering with local organizations, schools, churches, and NGOs, we meet people where they are and make research participation approachable and accessible.

1,000s of Warm-Handoffs to Sites Each Month

We don't just send a referral, we coordinate directly with sites and patients to ensure a smooth handoff. The Care Access team shares availability and medical records, supports direct scheduling, and provides reminders and guidance so participants arrive informed, prepared, and ready to engage.

Become a Top Site

By partnering with Care Access, your site can achieve higher enrollment with less burden.

Provide a Great Experience to Your First Referral

Every referral we send is pre-qualified and well-prepared for their visit. Sites have seen that these referrals are 7.5x more likely to enroll than others. This significantly improves screen failure rates, saving sites 6+ hours per enrollment on average.

Work With Us to Receive More Referrals

When your site consistently engages quickly, schedules screenings smoothly, and provides participants with a positive experience, Care Access can respond by sending more referrals. Top-performing sites have grown from 10 referrals to 100, supported by increased local health screenings and outreach from our team.

Become a Top Site with Direct Scheduling

With Direct Scheduling, Care Access schedules referrals directly onto your site’s calendar. This reduces phone tag and creates a better experience. Participants arrive ready for their visit. This streamlined process strengthens site performance and accelerates recognition by sponsors.

“6 of the 7 patients that we have in screening have come from Care Access. It's been easier to get Care Access Referrals on the phone because we get their phone number and can text them. If they don't answer the first attempt, we send them a text right after and they call us back.”
- Recruitment Manager for a Clinical Research Site Network in the Midwest
“We know how hard it is to find p-Tau positive patients in the community, and for every one patient [that Care Access] sends me, that is 10 patients I don’t have to screen. You are basically doing my job for me and I’m so grateful!”
