Abstract :
Academic Medical Centers continually struggle with clinical trials study management. A common approach is the implementation of a Clinical Trials Management System. However, integration of the Clinical Trials Management System with the health system´s Electronic Health Record System remains a goal of many institutions. Furthermore, adopting the Electronic Health Record as the primary study management mechanism for research is challenging but offers many improvements in data integrity, compliance and revenue billing management.
