Case Study: Shady Grove Fertility streamlines clinical research consent with EngagedMD

Shady Grove Fertility reduces outreach calls from 20 to 10 with EngagedMD

Shady Grove Fertility, a large fertility clinic, sought to improve the enrollment and consenting process for its in-house clinical research study. The challenge was to reach a broader patient audience, provide adequate time for patients to understand the study, and maintain rigorous regulatory compliance. To address this, they turned to the EngagedMD platform, a service they were already using for clinical patient education, to create a more familiar and organized research consenting experience.

EngagedMD provided a solution using its platform to deliver video-based educational modules and digital consent forms. This allowed patients to review the study information at their own pace and easily indicate their interest. For Shady Grove Fertility, this streamlined their workflow by automatically identifying interested participants, reducing the number of patient calls needed by up to 50%. The use of EngagedMD made recruiting 400 study participants more efficient, expanded their reach, and fostered more meaningful patient conversations while ensuring full IRB compliance.
