The Business Model to Integrate
Clinical Research and Clinical Care
Embedding clinical research in the care setting can lead to higher rates of clinical trial participation inside of a health system, better health outcomes, lower cost of care and more satisfied patients. The CRAACO® conference is a unique opportunity for pharma, healthcare and patients to come together and address how we can integrate healthcare and clinical research to improve patient access to clinical trials.

5 Goals of CRAACO
At the annual Conference and throughout the year, CRAACO aims to:
1. Bring together a variety of health systems, pharma, patient advocacy, payors, regulators and innovators to chart a path forward integrating clinical care with clinical research options.
2. Demonstrate practical examples, strategies and success stories from health systems and pharma navigating the intersection points of research and care.
3. Demonstrate tools to integrate clinical trials into health systems safely and for the benefit of patients.
4. Identify ways to reduce the barriers and burden to clinicians, research investigators and patients to participate in evolving, expanding and important clinical research.
5. Encourage continued forward movement, inspire further action and unite like-minded individuals and organizations.
