Clinical Conductor Introduces Enhanced Survey Module
Clinical Conductor Site CTMS customers can now save even more time and money with a brand new optional Enhanced Survey Module. This unique technology allows clinicians to create configurable e-surveys to replace time-consuming telephone visits. The system can then automatically send patients links to interactive e-surveys and can even automatically drop patients from studies after a specified number of failed attempts to contact. Once the surveys are completed, the data is easily accessible via on-screen reports or Excel files. The Enhanced Survey Module does it all with the distinctive Clinical Conductor power and convenience.

To attend a web demonstration, learn more about the benefits and pricing, or to schedule a personal demonstration, please contact your Clinical Conductor Account Manager by telephone at 877-279-8377, Option 1 or by emailing us.
