Medidata, a Dassault Systèmes brand and a leader in clinical trial solutions for the life sciences industry, has introduced Medidata Patient Payments, a new solution designed to simplify the process of providing stipends and reimbursements to patients involved in clinical research. This innovative solution automates the payment process, addressing the long-standing challenge of compensating participants for their time, effort, and study-related expenses, while also tackling concerns about the financial burden associated with clinical trials.
Medidata Patient Payments offers a user-friendly reimbursement experience, allowing patients to quickly submit claims for a range of expenses such as travel, meals, lodging, lost wages, childcare, and mileage. The platform automatically triggers stipends based on study activities, like completing assessments or diaries, providing flexibility and convenience. This integrated system ensures a smooth process, facilitating quick setup and meeting the needs of both patients and study sites.
“Our Patient Payments solution reflects our commitment to enhancing the patient experience,” said Meghan Harrington, Vice President of Clinical Trial Financial Management at Medidata. “Through collaboration with Medidata’s patient and site advisory boards, along with our extensive data ecosystem, we are uniquely positioned to modernize financial management for patients.”
Built on the trusted Medidata Platform, Patient Payments is easily accessible through myMedidata for patients and iMedidata accounts for sponsors and sites. Unlike standalone solutions, it is part of a fully integrated e-clinical suite, providing seamless integration and actionable insights throughout the entire study lifecycle.
